Having Enough Attitude Resilience and Toughness is a concept that hit me when I was talking to my long time (very long time) friend Andre Coard. We were sitting there talking about life and wanting to start our own company's and how difficult it was at the time for us. This was in the spring of 2007. Out of nowhere it hit me that the way to overcome the difficulties we were going through, we learned playing sports. Having "H.E.A.R.T" is a phrase that is so commonly used that it gets over looked. No matter what situation you find yourself in in life, the only thing you can control (honestly control) is your attitude. If your attitude sucks, so will your outcome. If it's positive, at least if things turn for the worse, you can take it with a smile on your face. Your attitude affects your resilience and your toughness. That smile on your face will make you bounce back from any setback. The toughness comes from continuously bouncing back (your resilience). The biggest thing is that you have to have ENOUGH of these attributes to succeed. What is enough for you may not be enough for me and vice versa. I can't live my life to your standards and you have to live yours according to yours. Having H.E.A.R.T got me through athletics and it also gets me through life. I hope you have enough (H.E.A.R.T that is) and if you don't...don't sweat it, I do, and I'll be here to motivate and encourage you to blaze your own path.
