31 to face a good team, all of whom were tall guys. Naturally, at my
32 , it would have been easy to be
33 by our competitors.
On game day, my basketball coach called me over to him. He was a strong and tough coach, and in his
34 rough manner said, “Joel, you’re not that
35 , but let me tell you that size doesn’t matter. Don’t be afraid. What

47 and inspired after spending any time with you and me
48 feeling discouraged or defeated.
Remember, there’s
49 greater investment(投资)in life than in being a people builder. Relationships
50 much more to us than our achievements.
