I can zero in a on a vision of where I want to be in the future. I can see it so clearly in front of me, when I daydream, its almost a reality. Then I get this easy feeling, and I don’t have to be uptight to get there because I already feel like I’m there.That its just a matter of time.

I set a goal, visualized it very clearly, then created the drive, the hunger for turning it into reality. There is a kind of joy in that kind of ambition, in having a vision in front of you. With that kind of joy, discipline isn’t negative or grim. You love doing what you have to do-going to the gym, working hard on the set. Even when pain is part of reaching the your goal, and it usually is, you can accept that too.

The game is only metaphor for a larger battle going on between the ears. This battle is the epic fight where man decides to slay his fear and asks will I be ordinary & average like the collective? Or will he climb his stairway to those spoils reserved for the unique… that is waiting for the player to claim simply through his effort and will? That is why football is like no other. A Coach builds up and requires his player to climb those stairs.
You will recall in a previous post we talked about the alter egos of Mr. Whiner and Superman.  Whiner always reminds us that we can take it easy and that indeed others are taking it easy so we should be able to also. He is very successful for his consistency. Mr. Whiner is persistent. A true character of success. However, not our success.
