Never succumb to the Fellowship of the Miserable. |
COMPASSION
Unexpected, Undeserved, Unrewarded acts of kindness change lives. |
| Bill Curry was sensational in his delivery to my national sales force. His comments and insights resonated with each member. He related real life stories to demonstrate the qualities of leaders and what it takes to win. | As I listened to Bill Curry, I was awestruck. He is the entire package in a speaker. Not only does he command the attention of the room with his engaging and captivating style, but he has a wealth of knowledge and experience that make his words and messages come alive. | Whenever I am responsible for finding a speaker who will inspire an audience to do more for others, to be better citizens, to stand up for justice, Bill Curry is the person I call on. He speaks to the heart of his audience. | ||

| These are the ideas I aspire to live by and to which I look for inspiration and motivation. Some are original. Most are learned from others and confirmed repeatedly by my life experience. If you come upon a cliché, remember that it probably became such because it is true. |
| Remember, Billy, you are a long time dead. You better enjoy this day and this football practice. You never know how many you’ll get! | A Champion has singleness of purpose; is unselfish; is tough; is prepared; and never quits . . . never. | Sow a thought, reap an action; Sow an action, reap a habit; Sow a habit, reap a character; Sow a character, reap a destiny. | ||||
