As athletes we must continue to get better every day, every second and every hour. We must attack academics and sports as equal elements to be successful on our road to glory. If you don’t approach the day with a positive and confident mindset, then you will decrease instead of increasing success. Take a look at some of the greats such as Jerry Rice, Ray Lewis, Randy Moss; and even Donald trump, Warren Buffet and Steve Jobs. All these successful men inspired the world with their desire to be great and change the world by being positive and confident every day. They had the mindset that they would make the next day better than the last. To athletes with a desire to make it the pros or to be successful in a professional field attack the day with authority and demand. Don’t feel like going to class is optional or getting a C is just enough to get by. We all are competing for future opportunities.
Word of the day: Attack
Definition: Set to work upon; turn one's energies vigorously to a task
Make success a goal, a task, to execute by any means necessary to accomplish your deepest desire and by mentally preparing for everyday problems, task and situations that challenge you.

ReplyDeleteHi Dwane!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your blog post, "Inspiring Athletes"!
I, for one, believe that having the ability to do "better than great" is an important aspect to take on in life.
I really liked where you wrote, "If you don’t approach the day with a positive and confident mindset then you will decrease instead of increasing success." and I definitely agree! I know for sure that approaching the day with a negative mindset will get you nowhere in life as opposed to approaching with a positive, clear, and confident mind where you can take on the day as if you can achieve anything.
