A-GAME isn’t motivation.
It’s my LifeOS for daily life.
Calm execution when pressure is high.
Not hype. Not hustle.
I share what I’m learning as an operator, leader, husband and father of three boys.

This is Amazon’s new 360 camera for NBA games.
They position high-resolution cameras around the arena to capture additional angles and then reconstruct each play as a 3D scene (similar to a video game).
It’s like a traditional replay on steroids.

O Prime Video tá testando um novo recurso de transmissão nas partidas de NBA pra aumentar a imersão.
Olha isso aqui... 🤯

"There’s not too many opportunities that can happen in your career the size of Manchester United, and when that happens, it’s difficult to turn down.
"It’s a really tough decision, but at the same time we are excited for that step."

Has this EVER happened in world football before?! 🤯🇦🇺 A player subbed on for his own brother… TWICE in the same game!
Beautiful moments for the Yengi and Herrington families as the Socceroos smashed Qatar overnight ❤️

Very good.
Qatar had no answer for excellent organisation without the ball - couldn’t play through to create, getting caught repeatedly in back third in buildup.
First half excellent.
New generation continue to develop, emerge, given opportunities.
A good exercise.

“You can’t turn it down”.

Major cheat code for life: Believe you'll figure it out. Then keep working until you do. You don't need to know exactly how you'll get there. You just need enough belief to keep going until you find a way.

🚨🗣️ Cristiano Ronaldo speaks up on Manchester United sacking Michael Carrick and appointing Mauricio Pochettino:
“Honestly, sometimes I look at Manchester United and I don’t recognise the club I played for. This is the club of Sir Alex Ferguson, Roy Keane, Paul Scholes, Rio Ferdinand, Wayne Rooney and David Beckham. We didn’t accept mediocrity. We played to win trophies, not to celebrate escaping relegation.
“David Moyes came and went. Van Gaal, Mourinho, Solskjær, Rangnick, Ten Hag, Amorim and now Carrick. How many managers must this club sack before somebody asks whether the problem is actually in the boardroom?
“Carrick finished third last season, won 12 of his 17 games and brought Champions League football back. Now, after a terrible start, he is gone. I am not saying he was perfect, but what message does this send? You give a man a contract until 2028 and dismiss him a few months later. Where is the long-term plan?
“Now it is Pochettino. A good coach, yes. But will he get the players he needs? Will Bruno Fernandes, Mainoo, Cunha, Amad, Dalot, Maguire, Mbeumo, Sesko and the others finally take responsibility? Or will we be having this same conversation about another manager next year?
“United are 18th in the league. EIGHTEENTH! This is Manchester United, not a club fighting to escape relegation. Liverpool are waiting at Anfield, and they must be looking at this situation wondering what has happened to their biggest rivals.
“I won trophies here. I know what this badge means. INEOS cannot keep selling the history of Sir Alex Ferguson while delivering performances that embarrass that history.
“STOP SACKING MANAGERS TO HIDE THE FAILURES OF THE PEOPLE ABOVE THEM. MANCHESTER UNITED NEEDS LEADERSHIP, ACCOUNTABILITY AND A WINNING CULTURE. #MUFC IS TOO BIG TO KEEP LIVING ON MEMORIES.”

❤️ Michael Carrick’s letter to Manchester United fans.
“Dear United fans,
I've had the immense privilege of leading Manchester United, the football club that I love.
There are very few who get to live that and feel it, and for that I'm incredibly grateful.
With that comes huge responsibility, and to be at Manchester United, you need to understand exactly what that means.
It's different to anywhere else.
Ultimately, you need to push to be the best, but there is a culture, there are values and there are behaviours that you have to live by and respect, which have been built over a long period of time.
It's a football club that is unique, with substance and history that cannot be ignored.
This is what inspired me every single day.
I want to say a big thank you to the supporters. I must say, you are a special, rare breed.
We've had some great times this year and moments we'll all remember. The best thing about being in my position was seeing so many of you lose yourselves in the emotion of those moments, leaving the stadium desperate to come back again next time.
I just wanted to give you something back.
That love never dies.
I know we've not had the results lately, but you've shown me nothing but love and support in times when the easiest thing, and what most end up doing, would be to turn the other way.
That means more than a win or two.
That's what makes you who you are.
That's why I fell in love with this club all those years ago.
A special thank you to my coaching staff. You gave me everything you had, every single day, and I couldn't have asked for any more. I'm incredibly grateful for your loyalty, hard work and support throughout.
To all the staff behind the scenes, thank you for everything you do for this football club. So much of your work goes unseen, but it never goes unappreciated.
And to the players, thank you for your efforts and the moments we've shared. I wish you all the very best for what's ahead.
I want nothing but success for Manchester United. This club has been such a big part of my life and that will never change. I'll always be proud to have played my part and I'll always want the very best for it.
I'll be right there with you from now on, watching from the sidelines, cheering the lads on”.

🚨 Sir Alex Ferguson on Manchester United sacking Michael Carrick:
“Carrick is my boy. I know how much this club means to him. He has Manchester United in his heart, and I’ve always seen his commitment, passion and desire to take this club forward.
But I honestly feel he was badly let down. He was let down by the board and, most importantly, by players who should have stood behind him when things became difficult.
You cannot expect a manager to deliver miracles without giving him the tools, players and support he needs. Carrick was expected to compete at the highest level, but was he given the squad and backing to do that? I don’t think so.
Look at what he achieved last season. You could see the potential, structure and direction he wanted to bring to this club. He had something special in him, but when consistency became necessary, everything started falling apart around him.
Don’t tell me the pressure was too much for him. It wasn’t about him being too small for Manchester United. He was fighting a battle without enough weapons. A manager can only do so much when his players aren’t giving everything.
When another manager comes in, watch how some of these players suddenly start running, fighting and giving everything on that pitch. That will tell you a lot about what happened under Carrick.
People compare Carrick to me, but they forget that I had the support of the board. I could go out and sign players who fitted my system and understood what I wanted to build.
I also had players who understood my demands, believed in my philosophy and were ready to fight for one another. I didn’t build my success with just any collection of players.
And let me make one thing clear: you cannot fix a broken car by charging the driver. If the entire machine is damaged, blaming the person behind the steering wheel won’t solve the problem. Manchester United must look beyond the manager.
Carrick deserved more patience, more backing and players willing to fight for him. Unfortunately, I don’t believe he got that opportunity.
I wish Michael Carrick nothing but the very best in his future. He will always be one of my boys.”
