I have a lot of things going on personally and professionally. We are considering buying a townhouse in St Augustine, FL, I am having articles published by vendors in the automobile industry, people are seeking advice daily about online automotive marketing and my bank account is not getting any bigger, yet. Saturday was football tryouts for my 10 year old son Tyler. They were timing their 40 yard sprint times, some maneuverability drills and basic throwing drills, to see where the kids were at. Pretty mundane stuff after you see your kid do it. So I took a book with me to catch up on some reading I have been meaning to do.
I was inspired to say the least in what I read and realized that there are times to quit and times to keep plugging on. I even used some of what I learned to encourage my son as well, because he was frustrated that he was not the fastest kid on the field. He and I will both make it through “The Dip”. He now understands that a football team does not need just fast kids, they need big kids like him as well.
I understand that some activities I have been participating in may have no purpose while others have high value if I do not fail on the execution and the townhouse in St. Augustine may be the best thing ever for my family. Live and learn.
