Late for Hockey Practice

It’s the weekend. And my youngest nephew has hockey practice. It’s the same time, same place, every week. Only he doesn’t.

In any team sport it pays to be early. Let’s call it Lombardi time. Even for a 12-year old.

The advantages are plenty.

  • Less stress and a more relaxed start to the day (especially for his dad).

  • Meet with friends and coaches before practice.

  • A chance to warm up properly—and prepare for the session.

  • Be known as someone who is reliable, consistent and dependable.

  • Increase your chances of selection.

If only he could put down the Lego Minecraft, avoid Fortnite and pack his bags the night before.

If you’re wondering why you're not succeeding in business, then arriving early is a useful skill.
