The Morning Pep Talk #12: GIVE

"It's not what you got, it's what you give. It ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live."

- TESLA

Good morning to the JWT Crew. Here is the word I want to focus on for today...

GIVE

If you don't know that song, here is the YouTube link. It's an awesome song. You're welcome.

But let that quote hit you between the eyes and really think about it. What are you giving? What are you doing with the life you live?

For all of us that are getting up and going to work today, I keep saying this over and over... what is life about if it's not about helping each other? What is the purpose of being here at all if we're not "giving' to one another?

For all my coaching friends and the athletes that read this, what can you give to your team today? People get so caught up in their numbers or their playing time, when in the big picture, you're not going to remember any of that 5 or 10 years from now. You're going to remember getting to be on a team with your friends, the good times you had together, that time somebody dared Tyler to eat a beetle, etc...

FYI, somebody really did dare Tyler to eat a beetle, for $15, and he did it. That really happened.

What are you giving to your teammates? What are you giving to your coworkers? What are you giving to the people you're going to see this morning? What are you doing with the life you live?

Think about that, because THAT IS DEEP! It's not what you got, it's what you give.
