Motivational slogans.

I think they are overrated. I subscribe more the the Mike Tyson philosophy, "Everybody's got a plan until they get punched in the face." I'm not sure how much having a good slogan works when the first bullet is fired.
But, with that said, I know coaches like to have slogans for the year. These are the slogans that are printed on tee-shirts worn under jerseys.
Well, here are two I came up with. Probably too long for a tee-shirt, but they could at least be posted on the locker room wall.
Every pratice; every day. Every game; every play.
Or, if that doesn't grab you how about:
Just do your job! Do just your job! Do your job justly!
(Now you can see why I didn't make a career of being a motivational speaker.)

Nicely done. Many slogans in my Army days, like, “first to fire”. My missile would fly a long way. Go tigers!

Some can be helpful, eg, "Do unto others before they do unto you."

.... was when I was coaching track at a local high school. (Volunteer assistant position. But, the second year I coached we won the state championship.)
While the kids were stretching before practice (like pre-game stretches in football) I would walk up and down the lines yelling, "It's a great day to get fast!" I would yell is during practice too, especially when I sensed they were losing their focus.
On the day of our first meet, some of the kids came up to me and said, "Coach, it's a great day to get fast." I would reply, "No. It's a great day to BE fast."
For two years we had a lot of fun with it. After both seasons at the awards banquet they gave me a photo of the team, signed by every member, and the title was, "It's a great day to get fast!"

That’s about as useless as a poopy flavored lollipop. If you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball. How dare you make me bleed my own blood?! Don’t you put that evil on me Ricky Bobby! Shut up Chip! The only thing you ever did was make a hot daughter.
Sorry. Got caught up in the silly movie references.
