When persistence doesn’t pay off

We've all had a time when we were the best option for a role and didn't get it.  We've been told I like you, but not like that.  Some will continue to be persistent in hopes of getting their dream result. Some however, get tired of the no's and move on. You may have...

Being told you can’t do something

We've all been in a situation where someone has told us we can't do something.  Often times that thing we're told we can't do is something we love to do.  I'm in that situation now, I was told by a doctor I can't workout for a month.  I'm not handling that well as...

Checking the Box

Last night I got to see one of my favorite bands, Metallica in concert.  I had a chance to see them when I was in high school, but decided to pass because I had a baseball game.   I made the comment then, I will get a chance to see them later.  Alittle more than 26...

Living Your Life

The expression you will only live once is one I grew up hearing.  As I got older that changed to you only die once but live everyday.  We can look at both of those expressions and see inspiration as well as some doubt.  Some face each day doubting why we're here and...

The SnowBall Effect

As a child I used to love snow, watching it, playing in it, snowball fights, the works.  I remember my Dad and other adults not being as fond of it, as an adult now I understand some of that.  Watching the snow and thinking of all the work (shoveling, driving, etc)...

Leave No Doubt!

One of the greatest pregame speeches came from Coach Bill Stewart before WVU played Oklahoma in the 2008 Fiesta Bowl.  "Leave No Doubt" still brings me goosebumps every time I hear it.  Coach Stew's words came when so many felt WVU was overmatched and was going to...

Uninspiring Inspiration

These last couple of weeks has brought about a lot of emotions and lack of inspiration.  I feel like we are all on our own rollercoaster.  Enjoying the excitement of the ups but then experiencing the bumps of the down.  How can we stay inspired when we only see and...

Practice

Yes, Alan Iverson, we are talking about practice.  I like so many during my playing career took practice for granted.  My senior year in high school was when the realization truly set in, especially after I suffered an injury in football.  Still remember the last...

The Blank Wall

Over the last week we have had some painting done at our house.  This morning while I was getting ready for work I looked at the blank wall above my bathroom sink.  For years there's been a mirror hanging there.  I've looked, I've stared and I've gotten ready looking...
