The Football Coach
A football coach was invited to speak at a big event.  When he
arrived and made his way to the lectern, he greeted the crowd.

"I was told to speak for one hour, but I can tell you everything
you need to know in 1 1/2 minutes" he said.

The people at the event looked at each other in surprise and
wondered if he was joking.  The coach looked determined as he
continued speaking to the crowd.  Gesturing toward them, he said,
"You need three bones to be successful."

The coach held up one finger, "First, you need a wish-bone,
something to dream on. Something that will inspire you to press
onward. Without something to look forward to and strive after - a
dream - it won't be worth it."

"Second, you need a back-bone, so that when the tough times come
you won't give-up.  You need to apply self-discipline and
self-belief and look for the rainbow after the rain."

"The third bone you need is a funny-bone, so that when your heart
gets broken you'll be able see it in the right perspective.  Life
is a contact sport - everybody gets hurt sometimes - a sense of
humor is a requirement for handling those tough moments."

The coach took another look around the room as he waved to the
crowd and then left the stage.

The coach said a lot in 1 1/2 minutes.  We can all use more of
those three bones as we move forward in pursuit of our dreams and
goals.

If your dream is to move up in your sport and help your child
reach his goals and dreams, contact us.  We want to help them
do it faster, more efficiently and more successfully.
