The POWER of COMMUNITY- Shaun White

The 2010 Winter Olympics are incredible.  Athletes are amazing, the competition is fierce and as I watch triumphant athletes, American 10 x GOLD X games and 2x Olympic Medalist, Shaun White, stands out for 2 reasons.

1. Dominance

As Americas most decelerated Alpine athlete, he has the style, skill, look and commitment to succeed.  

Not only have his efforts solidified his place in Olympic and US Sports history, his half pipe dominance has the world class competition believing the fight for 2nd is the only option.

FAMILY- The Power of Connection

I stood in line at a local business copy store the other day, and although I was feeling anxious, I took a moment and watched a young girl sitting at a nearby table. As she surrounded herself with her primitive tools (aka Crayons, markers and Paper), she drew, doodled and scribbled, with one thought in mind, do my best then show it to mommy!

Laying it on the Line!

The 2010 Olympic Winter games from Vancouver B.C. are underway, and as I watch the Women's Mogul Final, I am reminded that these athletes spend 2 102 400 minutes training, eating, traveling, and preparing for a 30 second opportunity!

Most sports offer second chances, AND not the Olympics. Competing athletes sacrifice all they have, for ONE opportunity to lay it on the line, and when asked, they wouldn't change a thing.

Life offers equal amounts of victory and defeat, Olympians take a risk, lay it on the line, and are now living the dream.

What can you do today to lay it on the line?

Dream It...

Plan It...

Execute It...
