Hey everyone, Coach Brad here, sharing a thought that’s been weighing on my mind lately, the thought is “Life Happens”??? What? This simple phrase is something that has different meanings to everyone, I’m gonna share what it means to me.
1)-So you set a goal (anything that you want to achieve) 2)then you need to find a way to reach that goal, so you decide the best path for you to reach that goal, (this path to your goal may have rocks, roots, fallen trees, side paths, a stream or river to cross, hills, valleys, mountains, basically any type of obstacle you may encounter on this path to your goal, but learn how to get past each obstacle you encounter-wiser). 3) you make it past each obstacle or you take an alternate route that may lead you to the goal, (you are focused on that goal and are working to achieve it, you get knocked down, find the strength to get back- you’re stronger). 4) You finally reach your goal!! So the original path you plotted doesn’t exactly match the route you took, BUT you learned and became wiser, stronger, you got back up and didn’t let any of the challenges become your excuse! You rose to the occasion and kept on toward the goal! That’s what Life is, no matter what your goal may be, a sporting event, family life, work life, when you get knocked down, you don’t stay there, you have to get back up. To me, that’s what “Life Happens” means, Life is all those challenges and obstacles on the way to your goal! So when you encounter “Life”, treasure those moments, stay positive, and stay determined to learning and getting stronger for the next challenge!!
