Last night I watched an amazing film that was about the inspiring Razorback football player Brandon Burlsworth. At a young age he decided he wanted to play for the Razorbacks and well, through hard work, faith, and determination not only accomplished his goal but became probably the most famous walk-on ever!
I think the thing that stuck out to me the most was his faith. Even though others doubted his dreams, he never gave up on them and continued to put forth 110% effort so that he could get where he wanted.
What it must be to have that faith, that belief, and that mindset that even though everyone doubts you, the belief in God will carry you through whatever you are facing. Imagine that. Imagine knowing that even in the darkest of times you can and will make it through because God is there walking right beside you.
So today I DARE you to think about one thing you want, one thing you are chasing after. And I challenge you to write about it, create a vision board about it, and then believe in it. When we have that vision and truly believe in it, dreams really do become reality!!!
Brandon was an incredible guy and if you've not seen the movie I strongly recommend it! And here's a final thought from his coach that pretty much sums up how we accomplish anything in life. Make that vision board and start working hard - you WILL accomplish your dreams!!
"You know, football's a rough game; it's unpredictable. Life itself, squeezed into 60 minutes in 100 yards. Now, you can't control who your mom and daddy is, but you can control how hard you work. Sow with thought, you reap in action. Sow with action, you reap a habit. You sow a habit, you reap a character. You sow a character, you reap a destiny. Every place starts with a cadence and ends with a whistle. What you do in between, determines your legacy, so make sure you give it everything you've got until you hear that whistle." Coach Tice.
