Hey everybody it’s Tiger! I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve posted on here so let me catch you up on what’s going on.
I’ve been very blessed to have just gotten back from my third Student Ambassador Summit in Arlington, Texas for Fuel Up to Play 60! I got to return this year as a Youth Council member and lead a team throughout the entire 4 days while we were in Texas. Let me tell you, when they say everything’s bigger in Texas, they aren’t kidding. From the Dallas Cowboys’ stadium to the Summit itself, everything was bigger and better.
This was our largest Summit that we’ve ever had at Fuel Up to Play 60! We had over 100 AMAZING Student Ambassadors attend and learn how to go back to their schools and implement the Plays and activities that Fuel Up to Play 60 gives!
Not only did we get to hear from amazing speakers such as GENYOUth Foundation’s CEO Alexis Glick, Inspiration Panel members Zak Malamed, Colton Bradford, and Joanna Franco, as well as FOUR NFL players (Johnny Hekker, David Bruton, Devin McCourty and Jason McCourty), but we also learned how to share our inspiration with others!
As I learn every year that I get to return to these events, there’s always something I don’t know. And just when I think I’ve got all the knowledge I need, something else comes along that I believe to be essential to my plan. The best initiatives are the ones you can continue building on. You can NEVER stop believing that you are the one who will make a difference. As Zak Malamed talked to us about at the Summit, quit telling yourself that you are the leaders of tomorrow. Because that’s a lie. Don’t believe it. And do you know why? Because you’re the leader of TODAY! You’re the one who woke up today and has the resources and enthusiasm to be the change TODAY!
Get out there right now, and believe. Treat your plan like a building. You’ve got the blueprints. You’ve got the foundation. All you’ve got to do is hammer in that first nail and keep on working and never stop. Build and build and when it seems impossible to add anymore to your master plan, you add just one more thing. That’s my challenge to you. So get out there. There’s no tomorrow. As Ambassadors, we are the change of today. Don’t. Stop. Believing.
Signing off until next time,
Yours In Health,
