Soccer has been the attention lately in most of world. But Americans still love their version of football. One of the best football coaches that ever lived began his life today in 1913. It is none other than the great Vince Lombardi. You can’t say the Green Bay Packers without mentioning him.
He not only won games in his life, but he also influenced young men for ages to come. Some of his quotes are below.
“Coaches who can outline plays on a black board are a dime a dozen. The ones who win get inside their player and motivate”
“People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.”
Maybe he got some good advice from another well known coach of Nazareth. He seemed to be more concerned about what was inside the person than what they knew on the outside. Christ also knew that His kingdom rested on not just him. He spent time with people especially his disciples. Maybe today would be a good time to channel your energy in looking inside a person and getting them to win together with you. That’s a good game plan for success!
