Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Patrick Mahomes, and Andy Reid, are just a few of the greats... What do they all have in common? Yes, the physical attributes like height and general athletic talent and build, but they didn't begin their careers as the greats nor were their paths easy. How many comebacks have these greats all led? Last minute game winning drives by Brady, overcoming horrible seasons by Manning, reaching the AFC championship 6 years in a row even without as complete of a team as they've had in recent years by Mahomes and Reid, and personal tragedy's in Andy Reid's life, To be great means having the mindset that despite overwhelming challenges, setbacks, and maybe even catastrophe, you know that the work you've put in has laid the foundation to succeed. You trust the process and have the MENTAL RESILIENCE to win despite the odds. Episode 8 of the Snap to Whistle Podcast is ready to go! Give it a listen and give us some feedback.
