Shot 11: Thought of the Week

https://medium.com/killericscancer/returning-to-normal-4cbeb9606edf

“I used to dream about a future where I was rich and successful. These days, I dream about a future where Bryn, Eric and I can all go have a picnic in the park together.

It turns out all that really matters to me is my family being healthy, happy, and together. If we have that then I’ll feel like the richest person in the world.”

A reminder to appreciate the ‘little’ things…

The team that is the most focused and executes the best is the team that wins. That’s usually the team that can handle the pressure of the situation. ~ Michael Strahan
