I understand that teams are a collective of individuals geared towards obtaining a (or several) main goal(s). Teams can be as large as a college football team, 85 scholarship player not including walk-ons. Or they can be as small as a Mens/Womens Tennis Doubles team. Regardless of the size, there are going to be times when at least one person is going to need help or an encouraging word from someone else on their team. This is where the other teammate(s) need to step up and provide some form of help. Even though I no longer play organized sports, I still have a set of teammates that are there to pick me up when I'm down or need the motivation to keep going. Being a good teammate isn't about putting up gaudy numbers or garnering a lot of attention, being a good teammate is being there for your team when they really need you. When someone needs your help, whether it's on a busted play, or weakside help, or if they lose their job...will you be there to have their back? Individuals are only as good as their team, and a team is usually only as good as its collective individuals.

What good is your team if it doesn't work?
Hello, my name is John Harris and H.E.A.R.T Athletics LLC is the name of the company I started during my last year in the military. H.E.A.R.T Athletics LLC is a company that aims to bridge the gap between a common sports phrase (heart; having it, using it, wearing it on your sleeve...etc.) and the athletes who exude it. It has been my life long dream to start my own business while providing a unique product to athletes and sports fans just like myself. Having "H.E.A.R.T" means so much to me because as a football player, I wasn't the biggest or the fastest, but I played hard each and every down I was on the field. One of my most favorite memories is walking onto a Division 1AA football team and not only making the team, but starting as a Freshman Cornerback for the season. I hope you find my blog entertaining and inspiring, ultimately pushing YOU to achieve lofty goals.
