Hello May!!!
1. Question – Have you reasoned why you are not your
best?
2. Thought – I always believed that if you put in
the work, the results will come. I don’t do things
halfheartedly. Because I know if I do, then I can expect
halfhearted results. That’s why I approach practices
the same way I approach games. You can’t turn it on
and off like a faucet. I couldn’t dog it during
practice and then, when I needed that extra push late in
the game, expect it to be there.
But that’s how a lot of people approach things. And
that’s why a lot of people fail. They sound like
they’re committed to being the best they can be.
They say all the right things, make all the proper
appearances. But when it comes right down to it,
they’re looking for reasons instead of answers.
You see it all the time in professional sports. You can
even see it in your friends or business associates. There
are a million excuses for not paying the price. “If
I was only given a particular opportunity” or
“if only the coach, teacher or boss liked me better,
I could have accomplished this or that.” Nothing but
excuses. (I Can’t Accept Not Trying by Michael
Jordan)

Don’t text and drive. Enjoy May! Read a book! Eat
healthy. And listen……
AND: Yesterday I was in line at the grocery
store around 7 PM. Two older guys were in front of me.
They each had six-packs of beer. One Michelob Light and
the other Yuengling. I said, “I bet you guys are
gonna head home and watch Fox News.” No response.
I thought I must of offended them. As they were walking
out, one guy turned around and said to me, “Yep,
we are gonna watch Fox & Megyn Kelly at 9. We really
don’t care what she says, we just like looking at
her.” Gotta love Americans!
