Diamond, what's two tips you'd give to that high school junior or senior that's going to the next level, again, whether it's athletically or in life?

The number one thing would be to treat every single day. This is what I call the one day contract mentality. The second tip is be as coachable as you possibly can be. If there's one thing I've learned through working with some of the best athletes in the world, some of the best coaches in the world, some of the best executives in the world, they are always, always, always seeking to learn.
