The Choice is Yours

On December 30, 1956 the New York Giants under head coach Jim Lee Lowell crushed the Chicago Bears in a 47 to 7 rout. This NFL Championship team featured two assistant coaches, Vince Lombardi, offensive coordinator and Tom Landry, defensive coordinator. Both would go on to win multiple Super Bowl victories as head coaches. Ultimately, Lombardi and Landry were enshrined in the Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. The victorious Giants also featured a nucleus of Hall of Fame players including Frank Gifford, Alex Webster, Roosevelt Brown, Sam Huff, and Andy Robustelli.

Occasionally, in life, we have already won the game before setting a foot on the field because those who surround us will not allow us to lose.

Who are your “coaches?”
What are they teaching you?
Who are your teammates?
Can you trust them to cover your back?
Who is playing on your team?
What are you paying them?

Take a look around. Are you surrounding yourself with the kind of people who will take you to a championship; however you might choose to define that word for your own life?

The choice is yours.
