Darren Burgess and Jason Weber examine the personal cost of high-paying jobs in sports performance and why professional standards should never waver regardless of who you're coaching.

• AFL running data shows interesting trends in team performance
• High-paying positions in sport come with significant personal costs
• Work-life balance on social media often presents a deceptive snapshot
• Career progression may require sacrifices early on to establish yourself
• Many high-performance managers currently live away from their families
• The attitude toward coaching should remain consistent across all levels
• Working with Paralympic athletes provides valuable learning opportunities
• Good coaches should be adaptable to any athlete who trusts them
• Belief that you can only coach "elite" athletes is a problematic mindset
• Treat all athletes with the same professionalism regardless of their level
• Skills don't magically improve with "better" athletes – true expertise works at any level
