Be
Thankful… Be Humble… Be Careful
Some time ago, I read "Quiet Strength" which was
written by Tony Dungy former NFL coach and Super Bowl champion. It's a marvelous book filled with important
life lessons. I believe even readers who have nominal interest in football find
it to be a worthy read. “Quiet Strength”
certainly makes clear the powerful and positive impact of a great, faithful,
wise father such as Dungy had. “How did your venting improve the situation?”
Tony’s dad asked quietly after young Tony had exploded. “You can’t always
control circumstances. However, you can always control your attitude, approach,
and response. Your options are to complain or to look ahead and figure out how
to make the situation better” (p. 16). In “Quiet
Strength,” you get several of Dungy’s great insights on leadership from
Nehemiah and David and other biblical texts. A lot of Dungy’s leadership
emphasis is on character and culture: get those right and the rest will follow.
Coach Dungy credits his Christian faith
and many people who uplifted him along the way.
One was his high school coach, Dave Driscoll, who provided many
admonitions, including: "Talent is God-given, be thankful;
Praise is man-given, be humble; Conceit is self-given, be careful."
Have a nice day and a grand weekend!
CORNY JOKE OF THE DAY:
Why did the police arrest the turkey?
They suspected fowl play.
