Circle of Trust

My kids just got some life lessons that I think we can all learn from.  My daughter has worked hard for a long time at soccer.  She wasn’t invited to varsity tryouts at school, but the coach noticed her at JV tryouts and picked her for the team.  Lesson to keep working hard and it will pay off.

My son got a message from his Basketball coach who told them that Playing time will be given to those who have an Impact on the game. He went on to say that it doesn’t mean scoring. Could be defense, rebounds or just doing the little things to win a game. Great message and I’ve thought about how that translates to life. It’s important to remember that we impact our life and the lives of others around us in different ways. It doesn’t have to be flashy or directly obvious in the scoreboook. We impact others in ways we dont even stop to think about.  I think it’s Important to think about what your strengths are and how we can use those to help others and impact the game of life.
