Inspiration
Tampa Bay Rays pulled off a miracle last night.
You may or may not be into baseball, I am only because of my son - he plays Little League and High School ball and loves it. He has the MLB channel on at home. He knows facts and stats. I have never been into sports, but we have become a baseball family. And we live near Tampa, so naturally we are Rays' fans.
At the beginning of this year, the Rays were "raided" of most of their best players, who, after a great year last year, were wooed away with large salaries by bigger teams. The Rays are a "rookie" team, having only been an MLB team for a few years. They have a small payroll, relatively speaking. And no one in Tampa, or elsewhere, expected much of the team that remained. We all looked forward to a relatively uneventful year.
And it started out that way. But, it did not end that way!
How does a group of young upstarts pull off a three-series win against the Yankees (who have the highest payroll in the MLB), to end with a spot in the playoffs? And to boot, down in the 7th inning 7 to zero, score 6 runs in the 8th. And at the bottom of the 9th, with two outs and two strikes, score a home run to tie the game? And to win the game in the bottom of the 12th inning with a single homer by veteran Longoria?
Determination, grit, teamwork, belief, a few veterans to lead the way (Longoria) and yes, a little luck (can you say Red Sox?).
This morning I have hope. And this should give all of us hope and inspiration. Miracles do happen. If you have a vision and determination, tenacity, and a veteran (or mentor), the universe will add that extra ingredient to pull things together for you. When your life falls into place as it should be, it will look like a miracle has occurred!
So, even if you are not a baseball fan, let the Rays amazing run to the playoffs uplift you and give you hope. Hope that miracles can happen in your life.
You provide the vision, determination and tenacity, let us be your mentors, and then let the miracles begin. You are one step away from a path to a debt-free, asset-rich lifestyle. Join the Zero Balance Revolution today!
