CURRENT MISSION Enjoy life and understand meaning, my goal is to be able to relate and understand. ABOUT ME I could tell you everything about me but there are too many words, desciptions and characteristics that I could write,, but none would be sufficient to describe myself because I need more than a box to tell you about myself. I am a diehard sports fan, which I have studied the history of and use that to measure culture and to have goals as well as inspirations. i live in the moment & i believe everything happens for a reason. i'm sassy, crazy, and sometimes out of my mind, and completely okay with it. i love to meet new people and talk...a lot. i believe in breaking boundaries and being different. individuality = unique-ness if you say anything about me, i really could care less but if you do anything to the people i love, i'll take you out. i use my head but truly live with my heart. PHILOSOPHY "The strength of the group is the strength of the leaders." ~Vince Lombardi~ "If you are going to be a champion, you must be willing to pay a greater price." ~Bud Wilkinson~ "Success is about having, excellence is about being. Success is about having money and fame, but excellence is being the best you can be." ~Mike Ditka~ "The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender." ~Vince Lombardi~ "Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way." ~Satchel Paige~ "One man can be a crucial ingredient on a team, but one man cannot make a team." ~Kareem Abdul-Jabbar~ "When I was young, I never wanted to leave the court until I got things exactly correct. My dream was to become a pro." ~Larry Bird~ "Good, better, best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better and your better is best." ~Tim Duncan~ "My responsibility is getting all my players playing for the name on the front of the jersey, not the one on the back."-PRIDE "You owe it to yourself to be the best you can possible be - in baseball and in life." ~Pete Rose~ "Leadership, like coaching, is fighting for the hearts and souls of men and getting them to believe in you." ~Eddie Robinson~ "You can motivate by fear, and you can motivate by reward. But both those methods are only temporary. The only lasting thing is self motivation." ~Homer Rice~ Champions aren't made in the gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them -- a desire, a dream, a vision.
