For those of you youngsters out there who have never heard of Dan Gable, make sure you Google him! What an outstanding career as a collegiate, World and Olympic Champion wrestler! Then, he went on to coach the Iowa Hawkeye Wrestling Team to numerous national team titles as well as numerous international team titles. He was known for his tenacity, discipline and enormous work ethic. In one of the chapters, he wrote about what is “normal”. I know some folks don’t like to stand out from the crowd, they would rather blend in and not cause any waves. They don’t want others to think they are pushy or arrogant or whatever. That’s fine and actually quite natural. However, in the athletic field, being “normal” and working just as hard as everyone else won’t lead to great achievements. To achieve greatness, your “normal” should be above and beyond everyone else’s “normal”. Are you ready to step it up a notch and rise above normal??
