Razerbacks Football team, his coaching and leadership abilities
created many fans. He is a top motivational speaker and
now shares the meat of his presentations in this book.

has talked with a pronounced lisp since childhood, and his
name was left off the guest list when God handed out physiques.
Everything
that happens to us is the result of the choices we make.
We choose act or procrastinate, believe or doubt, help or
hinder, succeed or fail.

Your
talent determines what you can do. Your motivation determines
how much you are willing to do. Your attitude determines
how well you do it. A positive attitude is the key to attaining
superior altitude. You're the only person that can change
you.
Great
leaders have a passion for their causes. Leaders must know
what motivates their people. Everyone should be focused
on the same goal. A Leader should mingle with his or her
troops.
Don't
let what you don't have keep you from using what you do
have.
Remember,
every day, some ordinary person does something extraordinary
Today, it's your turn. Become a participant rather an a
spectator in your life. The books your read and the people
you meet can help you dream, believe, adn achieve.
