Have a Perfect Monday



In line with our Monday Mush’s is another great football coach speech…This is from “Friday Night Lights,” and it is a great clip to think about this week!  Supposedly this is a pretty accurate depiction of the real “Panther speech” at halftime when they were losing to the Carter Cowboys in the state championships.

What does it mean “to be perfect?”  Is it about the game, or is it about relationships?  Knowing that we didn’t let anyone down…knowing that we did everything we could for others.

I love this clip.  What a great message to keep on our minds and our hearts. 

I can never be perfect…I am far from it…yes, I know you are so shocked, right??!! 

But, as this coach stated, being perfect isn’t about doing things perfectly, it is about having a clear conscious from knowing that our actions were of pure intent.  We chose our course of actions because we had love/joy in our hearts for others. 

That is a true team.  We won’t agree on many, many things this year, and that is ok.  But, we can KNOW that we don’t disagree on what is truly important and why we are doing what we do.  That makes disagreements seem MUCH smaller.  We all are making decisions to do what we do because we love kids and education.  We are disagreeing because one person is trying to harm kids…so know beyond a shadow of a doubt, that we are all on the same team.

Thank you again for playing on this team…


Have a “perfect” Monday!
