I played soccer since I was 4 and had the privilege to play with and against some of the best to wear a USWNT jersey. And one day when I was down on myself for making some mistakes, I sat next to Julie Foudy with tears in my eyes. After consoling me a bit, she said, "Your job is to make your teammate look good. So focus on increasing your touch, making better passes, and thinking in a way that helps your teammate. The better you get individually, the better the team will be." What she meant was that in order to be the best, my job was to improve my skills to help other's jobs become easier. Being a consummate teammate and professional is about daily learning and improvement to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts. Whether as an employee, or owner of my companies, I have taken that advice with me. It's not about taking credit, it's about helping more than myself. I love coaching others and rewarding what I want duplicated. And learning and curiosity are a daily practice in and out of sport.
