Motivational Quotes


Greetings! I want to share this very important quote below with you with the hopes that it will affect the way you prepare for your next day and also how you recover from your game that just ended? Two elements that are critical to You keeping your Mind in a Calm State and preserving your Energy!

Legendary actor John Wayne offers the absolute best advice when speaking about one's attitude and outlook: "Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean every day. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday."

Now, in terms of how you rebound from an opportunity that just might not be going your way for playing time or battling through injury, think of how different the United States of America might be today if this one man would not have persevered like he did or just gave up on himself? After all, his resume states ...

* Born into poverty in 1809.
* He twice failed in business that he started.
* He lost eight (8) different political elections.
* He once suffered a nervous breakdown.
* He fought through so many setbacks but kept getting up. 
* Never stopped believing in himself.
* He later become the 16th President in the history of the USA. 
* He is Abraham Lincoln!

Never Fear Failure or setbacks OK! Just like that Mouse in the graphic image seen up above.  You have to Suit Up every day. Look that piece of Cheese in the Eye and Go After It. Like that Mouse, you have to convince your Mind that You are not going to let any obstacles get in your way!

My best always!

Motivational Story - The Process

Image
For this piece, I am going to dip into the movie industry to illustrate the point about the “PROCESS”, a term every athlete hears and has engraved in the back of his or her mind on a yearly basis when competing in team sports? This will show you that no matter the sport or the profession or regardless of your experience, that you have to be totally prepared before the lights ever get turned on in order to achieve the results necessary to advance in your trade? So let's look at the Process Hollywood actor Rami Malek subjected himself to when he got the leading role in “Bohemian Rhapsody” where he played legendary frontman Freddie Mercury of the famed rock band QUEEN back in 2018. This actor took an entire year to learn every single aspect about Mercury’s life and left no stone unturned. He quickly took up residence in London where much of the movie would be filmed and had himself fitted for prosthetic dentures to replicate the unique bucked teeth and shape of Mercury’s mouth. He ...

Motivational Story - Never Give Up on Your Dream

Image
I was watching some reruns of the old “X Games” on cable television and admiring the daredevil skills of the guys and gals involved in Snowboarding. When I did some research, I came across a story on one of the past athletes I wanted to share that was about the ultimate in desire and perseverance to pursue a childhood dream. This tells the story about Justin Reiter , then age 33, who was chosen for the Alpine Snowboard team that would compete in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. This piece is not going to be about the Olympic result but rather the incredible Mission he took to get there! Justin left home in California at age 18 to make the move to Colorado so that he could train and race against the best competition in the U.S. and around the world. Twice he would fall short in his first two attempts to make the Olympic team at the trials; once because of injury in 2006 and the other by just one qualifying spot in 2010. Before you read further, know that for most of the U.S....
