Three in the Pool 01.22.09

Thursday the pool day is becoming very unpopular. Only three athletes showed up so it was a very quick day. Larry, Thomas, and Adam. For Adam, it was pool only because he is now at practice on Saturday and needs a day of rest.



For the others it was a day of remembering the Goal. Thomas, who is a marathoner, wants to move to 7:30 miles. He’s running a 5k Sunday to test his new speed work. Larry wants to return to his school for his protesting date, a completely different athlete, then make the impact necessary to get drafted.



We talked in great detail today about the goals and what that clearly looks like to each athlete. Adam has a concrete date for his regional workout in his quest to make the June NFL Combine. Little do sports fans know there are two Combines held each year, so the NFL doesn’t overlook anyone. Adam has his sights set on the second one. Having a specific goal is the next step in bringing it closer to you. It’s the principle that lays the foundation for the dream.

GOAL ~ constructive thought
The first thing that you own
The form your desire was given
Yours and yours alone
The quest that keeps you driven




We took some more photos of Larry so he can see his own progress. Oh hell, so everyone can see his progress... lol

I love the Principles T!!! It is beautiful to know them in application. Following these athletes is so very inspiring! I feel bad for the ones who do not come. They are missing out and depriving themselves! Keep on keeping on!
