The Importance of Staying Humble

With pitchers & catchers reporting and baseball season on the horizon, I wanted to share something that I experienced during the offseason. I had the chance to interview Chance Adams. 

Chance Adams is a top Yankees pitching prospect. I am sure we will be seeing him in the Bronx soon. 

I know a lot of you aren’t going to know who this guy is, but I thought it was interesting that on a Saturday morning this guy was just so blunt in his answers, so raw. He’s just ready to go out there and pitch.

Think about how much easier things are when you don’t build up all kinds of expectations and put pressure on yourself and how simple things can be.

That’s what I took away from Chance Adams. He didn’t seem to be bothered by the challenges of trying to become a major league pitcher or playing for one of the most historically great sports franchises of all-time.

As Brene Brown says, "a good life is to be grateful for the ordinary moments while so many of us are steamrolling over trying to find those extraordinary moments."

  • I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
