My son's baseball coach stood up at the front of the banquet room.
They had just wrapped up the end of season awards for the boys.
It had been a rough season for the team.
He had been a great leader of these young men while dealing with some fairly irrational parents. (Baseball parents can be the worst!)
He had pulled the best out of the team. Frankly, it was impressive.
He closed the night with a talk he called 'The 5 Driving Laws.'
This message applies to everyone so I wanted to share it in this Saturday Note.
1. Have a Destination - Know your goals. Study the map to get there.
2. Seat Belts - Make sure your support system is in place and take care of it. This is your family, friends, coaches and community.
3. Life Tickets - Speeding tickets and speed bumps are part of the life journey. Setbacks will happen. They are just life lessons or 'tickets.'
4. GPS - Don't always follow the GPS. Trust your gut. If your friends are turning right, maybe you should turn left. Look for the road less traveled.
5. Have Faith - Never give up on your dreams.
--> A great message for the young men in the room.
--> A great message for anyone who needs direction in life.
