I needed to hear this today!

Mom sent me an email this morning with some truthful words of wisdom from Colt McCoy's father, Brad...

"Be a Leader" He stated that we are surrounded by such a great cloudof witnesses - great leaders that we can draw from and that our kids can draw from. He said we are all at the mercy of time and money and asked a rhetoricalquestion: How do you spend your time and money. He then said that how we spend our time and money is a direct reflection on where our true priorities lie.Convicting! He then said as a leader that he has always loved the quote by Ghandi (even though he didn't ascribe to all of Ghandi's beliefs): "I will not let anyone walk through my mind with dirty feet." He said that as he taught this principle to his three boys that Colt McCoy turned this phrase into his ownwords: "Thoughts become things." Colt would tell his younger brothers as he mentored them, " You can't talk like that or think like that, because thoughts become things that play themselves out in your life."
