I was a Division I athlete in name only. I had elite speed and athleticism but never became elite. I was limited by disappointment and failure became my identity. I lacked the psychological aptitude that makes college athletes successful on and off the field. After years of disappointments and seeing how people's success led to the next success I feared that the first success was nothing but luck.
But then something happened. I changed the way I thought. I faced my fears by developing new disciplines. And today, I’m helping others create vision and act on their goals.

This is the fist chapter of my book "Proficient." This book was written because of many years of disapointment and frustration. In chapter 1 I challenge the reader to changer their perspective of the unknown by viewing it as a time of growth rather than imprisonment.
