A thread about "process over results":
A while back I had thought that this meant that results didn't matter or to never think of results. That, if results never come, it's okay cause the process is the only thing that matters.
At the end of the day, results do matter. (1/7)

Utah gets two more defensive stops, and Alec Anigbata now gets the layup +1!...
He misses the FT but Utah up 60-56.

Morgan Scalley had a great answer to a question about the religious, cultural and proximity aspects of the Utah-BYU rivalry:
"Yeah, I think you can find that in any rivalry. And yes, you have a predominant religion as part of one school, but I think we make too much of that.
"There are young men playing on both teams that aren't LDS and there are fans that aren't LDS. They're fans and they're players. At the end of the day, does God care who wins this game? No. Does he care about people? Yeah.
"And so I think we can be better to each other in that realm. But definitely, like I said, the proximity, how close we are, and family members having gone to both schools, the whole family draw is what can make it so good."

NLCS MVP Jake Bauers shares how letting go of results helped him find a different level of freedom as a competitor.
"I think what changed for me this year was I stopped caring about results. I started caring about competing. I started caring about being in the moment and getting out of my own way."
Sometimes, the biggest obstacle to performing at your best isn't a lack of preparation or ability.
It's the pressure you place on yourself to produce a particular outcome.
You become so concerned with what you want to happen that you lose touch with what the moment actually requires.
Any performer can unlock a new level when they learn how to be fully invested in the competition without becoming imprisoned by the outcome.

They didn’t miss the mark. No apology is needed. Watch the video. This is insanity.

Haha this didn’t go the way those fans wanted 🤣
From the frames, Greathouse does have a hand on the BYU defender’s arm/wrist amid the mutual grappling. That contact restricts free movement for both players and can make a clean turn harder. Still, the defender’s body and arm position primarily limits the receiver’s path while his head stays mostly on Greathouse rather than locating the ball, which is why most analysts viewed it as DPI.
Listen to Bregman talk about what could cause the highest level hitter in the world and then apply that to youth baseball… these kids are growing and their bodies are evolving almost daily; hard to be consistently good and not go through slumps at some point.

Bryce Harper thought about his son Krew and "what [he] would say to him in that situation" as he turned the page on the misplay in right field. ❤️

After 29 years of marriage, I can sum up my best advice in three words:
Just. Hang. On.
Before your marriage can thrive, it has to survive.
I promise you this:
All the good stuff is on the other side of whatever problem you’re facing. When you feel like giving up, that’s the time to double down.
Let’s think logically:
Nobody gets divorced during the good times. That means THE WHOLE BALL GAME is weathering the storms. And trust me, the storms will come.
Years ago, when my marriage was struggling, an older mentor told me something that stuck:
A great marriage is built, not found.
If your partner…
> Isn’t crazy (increasingly rare these days)
> Shares your core values
> Wants a great relationship
…then you’ve got all the building blocks you need. But you still have to BUILD. And just as importantly, STOP tearing down.
Try this simple hack for 30 days:
Each morning, say, “I have the best spouse in the world.”
Even if you’re not sure you believe it, say it anyway. Make it your mantra. Say it to your partner.
YOU GO FIRST. I bet you’ll be shocked at how they respond in kind.
Words have power. What you say shapes your beliefs, which inform your actions. It becomes self-fulfilling.
Burn the boats and go all in. There’s a massive difference between being 99% committed and 100% committed.
These days my wife and I talk all the time about how great a life we’ve built together. I shudder to think where I’d be if we didn’t hang on through the tough times.
Nearly three decades in, we’re still building. I encourage you to do the same.

2026: Empty nest, still building.
P.S. It goes without saying that “just hang on” doesn’t apply to abusive relationships.
