Coach Kub Podcast

As we embark on this week I challenge us all to take some time, be honest with ourselves, and seek to recognize where our strengths and passions lie. We may find the answers immediately, or it may take longer, but we must ask ourselves these questions if we wish to find more fulfillment and purpose in our lives. Make it a great week y’all.

The process towards changing for the better and taking positive steps in the right direction is not about doing so over night, but rather making one small change after another and allowing them to add up over time.

Give yourself permission to have patience, take your time with the process, and eliminate judging yourself along the way. Simplify rather than complicate, be consistent, and make it happen because YOU CAN, AND YOU SHOULD.

You see, “normal” is a myth. There is no such thing as normal. There is no such thing as perfect. There is no such thing as flawless. On the other hand however, what there are plenty of, are imperfections and flaws, and THAT IS OKAY!

What I believe is that because of imperfections, we can therefore have much more empathy for one another, and help others recognize and work on their shortcomings, while they can help us do the same.

Tony Lippett is a native of Detroit, Michigan, where he was born and raised until heading off to Michigan State University on a football scholarship. There he starred as both a cornerback and wide receiver for the Spartans, culminating his career with being named the Big Ten’s Wide Receiver of the Year and 1st Team All-Big Ten selection his senior season.

He was selected by the Miami Dolphins in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, playing there for two seasons and starting for one during 2016. Most recently he has competed for the New York Giants and Cincinnati Bengals, and is currently a Free Agent awaiting his next opportunity.

When it comes to confidence, as well as most other things in my opinion, this attribute can be classified as a skill, meaning that it can be improved upon through our own efforts and endeavors. A common misconception of confidence is that we are either born with it or not, and not much can be done to help our cause in that regard; I highly disagree.
