“Do simple better
The process is fearless
The process lacks emotion
The process is the moment
The process is the mental anchor
The process simplifies the task”

1. Embrace the target
2. We all have to set aside our personal agendas
3. All do our jobs (9 on 1)

5. We are our own little planet
6. Rotate around the same goal”

“13 core principles of managing:
1. Make a personal connection first; everything else follows.
2. There is only one team rule. (Respect 90)
3. Freedom is empowering.
4. Never hold a team meeting in your home clubhouse.
5. Do not have a fine system.
6. Wear whatever you think makes you look hot.
7. Empower your coaches.
8. But don’t allow your coaches—or veterans—to be harsh on young players.
9. Question data with feel.
10. Pregame work is excessive.
11. Keep signs simple and to a minimum.
12. A lineup card is all a manager needs in the dugout.
13. Forget “The Book.” Making the first or third out at third base is okay.”
