Zitat des Tages von Stedman Graham:
I've worked in the prison system for five years, and most of those folks in prison didn't have a direction.
You know, and younger people today, you know, they may not have Social Security. They may not have a pension. They may have 17 different jobs. And so they have to be - they have to, you know, establish somewhat of an ownership, you know, mentality.
I'm a lucky guy. No question.
Understand who you are, so that you can be the same, whether you're talking to a homeless person or the president of the United States. You're the same person.
You know, you're living in a society where if you say something that you might think may be OK, when it's more sensitive to that particular culture. You have to be very, very careful.
The idea of being able to serve as an example, based upon how to process, how to think, how to realize our own dreams, we can pass that down to our children.
If you did the same thing you did yesterday as you did today as you will do tomorrow, what have you done? The same thing.
So while you're an athlete, and you have that platform, what you want to be able to do is make it work for you as much as possible, because there's going to be life after sports.
I'm pretty grounded on my own passion - writing books, you know, doing programs, speaking around the country. And I love what I do.
I define myself by everything that I love, everything I can create, everything that I can imagine.
