What price have you paid in order to improve yourself?
John Trimnell from Columbus, Indiana came to me in the spring just before going home for the summer, and wanted to know who he had to beat out the following year.
I told John, who was 6’2, 215 that he would have to beat out our 6’10 center, and that he had to outrebound him in order to win the position. John went home and bought himself some ankle weights.
John worked in the hay fields twelve hours a day for three months. Each day he wore the ankle weights in the field, came home after twelve hours of work, ate supper, went to the gym for two hours of practice, came home, took off the ankle weights and went to bed. He repeated this every day for three months.
John Trimnell became the reason that Valdosta State University went to the national tournament three years in a row.
Again I ask what have you paid to improve yourself?
