The spirit of football in Texas is as monstrous as the state itself!

And with the season among us, many will start cheering their favorite team to win. Some will become obsessed with supporting their teams - from making road trips to far-away games to yelling like a schoolgirl at their television.

As a former cheerleader, one of my favorite things to do during games was to grab my megaphone (the cone looking thing) and shout at the top of my lungs to the opposing cheerleaders and crowd, "We've got SPIRIT, yes we do. We have spirit HOW, 'bout you?"

The crowd would be CRAZY with excitement; they would shout back the same cheer but with even more exuberance! This strange act would continue for a while, until one of us just pooped out from the sheer energy and excitement of the shouting. We were dizzy with enthusiasm.

As cheerleaders, we knew when to arouse the crowd with this type of cheer. It was when our own team was struggling or when the crowd itself seemed to have lost interest in the game. The minute we started this yell, the crowd came ALIVE.

The crowd went from zero to ten in a matter of seconds!

So, just WHY did this cheer create such hysteria? Here's why:

  • Even For A Short Time Everyone Mattered
  • Each Person Became A Part Of Something Bigger
  • We Were All In It Together, And
  • The Momentum Was Intoxicating

As a coach and speaker, I often have people say to me "I want to change, but I just don't have any support." Some say, "I know I have to do this, but I'm not sure how my spouse would take it." Others proclaim, "I'm just not sure I can do it."

If one of these sounds familiar to you, consider getting involved in a group where you matter, where you are part of something bigger, were you have access to other people, and where the momentum is intoxicating!

You are committed to having peace, calm, and balance all while obtaining financial freedom AND have WAY more time with your family. It might sound like too tall an order, but it's exactly what you want, and it's exactly what you deserve.

When you improve your life and follow your dreams and goals you need other people by your side. You need others who have SPIRIT and who are willing to cheer you on with an awe-inspiring amount of encouragement.

When people with SPIRIT come together to celebrate their strengths, their efforts and their achievements - the energy is contagious!

The saying, "You are who you know," points to the fact that it is of the utmost importance to surround yourself with people in your life who will CHEER for you and for what you desire your life to be.

"We've got SPIRIT, yes we do... We have SPIRIT, how 'bout you?"
