Today's episode is one of grit and perseverance. Dr. Rick Bishop drive 2 hours to the ballpark several times a month in order to treat the opposing team's players but could never break through to his own team. He did this for WAY too many years before he finally got his break. In the meantime, Rick worked tirelessly to develop a network of Chiropractors for the other 29 major league baseball teams and plenty of lower-level professional teams. This later developed into the Professional Baseball Chiropractic Society. Listen for your daily dose of motivation! Enjoy!
