When I played hockey, we were down five goals going in to the third period. Coach wasn't happy and he said, "Think big or don't think at all," before we hit the ice. And that's all he said for the rest of the game.
We scored three goals in under two minutes. Then about ten minutes later we scored another three in under two minutes. All the hits were hard. All the skating was fast.
It just seemed to click with everyone. It's all about staying focused hard enough to drown out the noise.
So, to make a long story short, any time I feel like doing something with my life, I apply that thinking big stuff, then do the work.

Can't just sit around, hoping and moping.
Ahhhh the good old "Let's hit the with the Flying V this period."
It's not like the movies, man. LOL!
But I was like, Emilio!! ...Ahhh, I was hoping for a Hansen Brothers hockey tale. What a classic.
You played sports. You know how it is. I probably have 100 stories that sound like the movies now that I think about it.
