Why This Message
You Are A Celebrity
You’re exactly like the MLB players I represent. How? Because someone watches your every move & emulates what you do.
You Are An Agent
The definition of an agent is a person who is empowered to act on behalf of another. YOU must be the agent of yourself.
Hope
There are two types of hope – the hope you CAN’T control and the hope you CAN. What do you HOPE for?
Accountability
What is your Ability? You WILL be held to account for it. Ability is how you’re measured. Do you use it to make a difference?
Balance
It’s like a battery and we all need to recharge our batteries. Taking a break isn’t selfish, it’s smart, and leads to success.
Character
It is vital to your client, especially with modern day issues – namely social media awareness and bullying.
