“Ya know, there were a lot of us who were the dumb guys who did that and thought we were untouchable and unbreakable and that we could grind 5 days like that. Ya know, and pull those legitimate 80-90 hour weeks without stopping. We’ve all done it, it’s cool, especially when you’re young and there’s that pride factor in it. But when you start to get old and frail and a little fat like some of us have having that escape and knowing that there needs to be a time and a place to get away and recharge is going to save you in the long run.”

In this time of year, as we start to come to the “non countable” hours in college athletics, the topics of recharging and getting away come up quite often. In today’s My Thoughts Monday I talk about the necessity of that being something that we all need to focus more on, that mental escape to allow us to recharge. Share with us and others what you’re doing to “escape” to help spark ideas for other coaches to help improve our mental health of the profession.
