The Bullet of Choice: Strength Through Gain and Loss
During his tenure as Head Coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks, Lou Holtz made a great statement at one of his daily practice talks to the football team. I’d like to pass it on.
He said, “Men, you grow stronger in two ways. You gain strength by adding something you need or getting rid of something that is hurting you. Understanding that distinction marks the difference between a champion and a loser.”
Exactly! What a man or woman chooses to get rid of or to add to his or her life determines in the long run what he or she becomes. Surrounding yourself with “weak” friends contributes to your weakness. Choosing “strong” friends, “strong” ideas, “good” options, “moral” alternatives and “God” goals can only make a person stronger.
