I believe, in order to be a successful strength coach one must love what they are doing and why they are doing it. It is important that your colleagues, athletes, and others around you feel the genuine love and passion that you have for your profession. Once the program understands how much you truly care for their growth and success, the easier it will be for you to do your job. Energy is contagious, both positive and negative. You have the ability to create the environment that you wish to operate in. If you approach your day with positivity and optimism, more often the day will return the same energy. When your team buys into your genuine concern and care for them as individuals, it can result in a more productive, successful, and enjoyable work environment. It creates a win-win for everyone involved. Loving what you do and understanding why you are doing it is the foundation to a successful career.
