Lesson 2: Creating the Momentum to Succeed (Copy)
Self-Awareness: Did you know that 95% of us believe we're self-aware, and less than 15% actually are. We're going to shatter those illusions and get real about understanding ourselves. This is the foundation of everything—knowing who you are and what drives you. This lesson outlines the entire process, the secret sauce, if you will.

Lesson 3: Who do you see in the mirror? (Copy)
Let’s dig deep into your identity and confront your personal narrative—those stories you tell yourself about who you are and why you do what you do. Many of us hold onto stories that protect us rather than push us forward. These narratives often shield us from discomfort, accountability, or facing difficult truths. Ask yourself: is my narrative based on reality? Let’s strip away everything but the truth about you.

Lesson 4: Seek Self-awareness (Copy)
In the last lesson, I encouraged you to write your own personal narrative—who are you? How do you see yourself? How do you think others see you? What are your strengths and weaknesses? If you haven’t done this yet, take a moment to do it now.

Lesson 5: UNC Soccer Values and Success (Copy)
They don’t whine. They work hard. They don’t freak out. They want to be part of something bigger than themselves. These are some of their values.
Their 13 core values all together were the keystone for greatness at UNC. Certainly, it required many different “stones” to construct the foundation which led to the UNC Soccer Team dynasty, but these values, internalized, had a profound impact on everything else.

Lesson 6: Defining, Declaring and Committing to Values (Copy)
What are your values? Do you have them written somewhere? Can you recite them? Have you ever shared them with another?
If you can yes to these questions, you’re way far ahead of most people. If you’re like most people, then I will emphatically assure you that defining your values and internalizing them can change your life.

Lesson 7: Setting Goals (Copy)
The real growth happens not just in reaching a goal but in the process—the discipline, resilience, and transformation that occurs along the way. To evolve, you must set ambitious yet realistic goals, align them with your core values, and pursue them with unwavering commitment.
Your goals require a clear path and purpose, but the journey doesn’t start with the goal itself; it starts with you.

Lesson 9: Hacking the Brain with Mantras and Positive Affirmations (Copy)
At UNC we integrated them into our training regimen, before walking on the field, before taking a free kick, or whenever doubt crept in. If repeated every time a negative thought is triggered, eventually you’ll rewire the brain to repeat your mantra instead. Mantras are truths you remind yourself just before you perform or just after having a setback or doubtful thought.
