Sport provides such an excellent platform to teach important
life principles and values that help shape the character of young people. All
experiences are of value to youth development. The exhilaration of victory and
the pain and disappointment of defeat have their place.
Life will deliver its blows. What we must teach is how to
respond. The question is, how strong are we mentally, physically, and
spiritually to take these blows and make the choice to keep standing back up
and moving forward?
“There are two primary
choices in life; to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the
responsibility for changing them.” Denis Waitley

I heard a parent comment to their child one day that it is impossible to get ahead in life and it reminded me of this quote.
ReplyDelete“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
―Muhammad Al
Life lesson number one is nothing is impossible if you work hard enough.
