Live or Die?

by Gene | September 8, 2009

Which would you prefer, to die knowing you gave everything you had or live knowing you had more you could have given?

Personally, I would rather die knowing I gave everything I could. I feel better losing knowing I gave my all. I have realized that when you start to regret things, you waste your time, because you could not change it. There is a quote in our locker room that reads “What you gave today, you have forever. What you didn’t give is lost forever.” This is true, because if you don’t give your all in a day of work, you can’t get that time back, and you suffer the consequences.  If you give everything, the consequences are minimal because you did everything you could.

After practice, if I’m not exhausted from running all over the gym or working in drills, I didn’t do a good enough job and I let the players and coaches down.

But, I want to know, what do you think?
