Dan Carter - The Art of Winning With the rugby world cup on at the moment I thought it might be an idea to stick with the rugby theme and post a book I have been reading recently. Many people can get to the top level and stay there for a year or two, but what does it take to get to the highest level in your chosen field and stay there for 20 years? Well, it takes a lot of things, not least of all a focus on your goals and a set of core beliefs that you stick to. In his book, Dan summarises his experience of being at the top for 20 years into 10 lessons. Not rugby lessons, but life lessons for success. They are below. Which ones do you think are the most important? #rugby #success #lifelessons

Rugby is renowned not just for the physical intensity it demands from its players but also for the strong sense of camaraderie, sportsmanship, and respect that it fosters. This unique blend makes it more than just a game; it's a testament to character and unity. Winning and losing are part of every sport, but rugby sets itself apart by how it treats these outcomes. Victories are celebrated with humility, and defeats are handled with dignity, often with both teams coming together to appreciate the effort and commitment shown on the field. This ethos is instilled from grassroots levels up to the international stage, embodying the principle that it's not just the result that matters but how you play the game and conduct yourself. Rugby's post-match traditions, such as the 'third half' or social gatherings between opposing teams, highlight this mutual respect and shared love for the game. These moments are where lifelong friendships are forged, stories are shared, and the true spirit of rugby shines through. These principles are lessons that extend beyond the rugby field, influencing how players and fans approach challenges in life. The emphasis on honour, effort, and respect reminds us of the values that can lead to personal growth and positive interactions with others, regardless of the context. #respect #respectforpeople #respectatwork #respectyourself

The one thing that separates rugby from other sports - 🏉. Total respect and discipline towards the refs - it has been our backbone…. well certainly used to be! This clip is great to see but IMO sadly respect for refs is slowly eroding from our great game week to week and too often is allowing for questioning of the ref at all stages of their match ( on and off field) especially in key decisions! Victim culture - everyone’s hard done by if it doesn’t go their way - right or wrong ( human ) refs decisions are final - as frustrating as that might be! Errors occur sometimes in your favour, sometimes it goes against you. Get over it and play on! “Managing The Ref” in a professional environment has become the norm! Many very well know top players have contributed significantly to this. And should have been corrected on their behaviour! The resultant affect? - So much so now on social media much of the public thinks that’s refs are open season to be continously questioned, attacked, abused. Players are seen to be allowed to discuss, disagree and often argue with officials week after week - so why shouldn’t fans, other level players and kids & parents watching and playing do anything different?? @worldrugby if you don’t take a very hard line soon - direct, educate why, but ultimately act to stamp out the constant diatribe and victim culture that is creeping into the game - and insist on TOTAL respect for officials ( whatever the decision ( right, wrong or indifferent l) rugby will cease to have their one advantage over other sports 🏉! Once gone you will never recover it, and neither will the sport!
