Across the Field

Football season. All over America, it’s in the air. You can smell it, sense it, taste it and hear the beating of the drums. Teams are practicing in the heat and humidity. Marching bands are tweaking their chops and practicing hitting their marks. Coaches from high school to college are preparing for a successful season and praying they’ll hold on to their jobs.

What is on everyone’s mind across the field? It’s easy-one guess. On everyone’s mind is what it’s going to take: to succeed, to execute every play, to score, to become champions. To become the best in defense and the best in offense, it’s going to take Self-Confidence. For each player and each and every coach, it’s going to take Believing in one’s self.

Let’s say you’re playing “center” on offense. The referee blows the whistle, the quarterback cues the play and you’re holding the ball. You are the Key. From your hands the ball is in play and what will be its fate?

Jump to the other side of the scrimmage line. You’re a “tackle” on defense for the opposing team. This is not the time to be dreaming of one day playing in the Super Bowl, but what your responsibility is in the present moment. You are the Key.

If you recall in an earlier blog, I wrote about Leonardo da Vinci’s Seven Principles. Consider the outcome of each game or an entire season if every coach, every player, every member of the marching band and every cheerleader focused on Principle #7- Connessione- the recognition of and appreciation for the phenomenal interconnectedness of all things.

Good luck to all and best wishes for an outstanding season! YOU are the Key!
