Why H.E.A.R.T means so much to me.

As a kid, I never knew what the meaning of "heart" meant, but I always played my hardest even though I wasn't the best player on the field.  In the town where I grew up there were plenty of athletes who could run circles around me.  I'll name a few because they deserve to be acknowledged...Andre Coard, Tracey Moore, Mike Starks, Nai Moore,  and Rich Still to name a few.  Even though they were better, I still believed that I was a quality player and NEVER gave up on my dreams of playing College Football.  From 3rd grade to 8th grade, to put it nicely, I was a "scrub".  I wasn't neccesarily a bad player, but compared to these guys, I wasn't on their level...yet.  Before my 9th grade year I made a promise to myself that I would train harder, focus and start BOTH ways, even if it meant that I was going to severly injure myself in the process.  I didn't know it then, but the H.E.A.R.T that came out of me during those two-a-day practices stemmed all the way back from not getting alot of playing time and being fed up about it.  This brings me to the current day and how I want my company H.E.A.R.T Athletics LLC to inspire other athletes.  I now know the meaning of "heart" and I want to share my vision and thoughts through clothing and products that will enable others to understand and express themselves the same way I do.  I hope you guys can get an understanding of who I am and how I think through this blog and I hope you enjoy it as well.  Thank you and always keep your head up.  Because Having Enough Attitude Resilience & Toughness isn't just a phrase to me, it's a way of life.
