WORK HARD WHEN NO ONE IS LOOKING

Watch the video below with youth, then use the questions below to have a mentoring conversation with them.

  1. How did Walter Payton work hard when no one was looking?
  2. How did this prepare him to have the kind of success that he had as a running back?
  3. Do you work hard in the off season on your own (when no one is looking)?  What do you do?  How often?
  4. Do you do this for school?  Do you read extra or study extra without a teacher telling you to?
  5. Do you do this at home?  Do you do extra work around the house without your Mom or Dad telling you to?
  6. When are there other times that you work hard without someone watching you or telling you to do it?  What is one word that describes the quality that people have that do this? (self-discipline or self-motivated)
