Inspiring Success from a Celebrity Motivational Speaker
In a world where balance is determined by who leads and who follows, none such people are of greater importance than those who have the ability to inspire. It is these people who force us to take a deeper look within ourselves in order to help us discover the true depths of our potential. They are simply known, as motivational speakers. At first thought, most will identify the term with college professors, politicians, or even business executives. While they each in their own right and success do in fact qualify, there exist niche far greater than all of these that is often overlooked. I am of course, speaking about sports.
From coaches to the players themselves, the sports community itself is a mass of potential motivational speakers. The determination and discipline expressed on the field/court, sets the foreground for people to watch, listen, and be inspired. Where would sports be without the passionate leadership of coaches to bring out the maximum potential in such fine athletes? Have you, yourself, not been inspired by watching one of your favorite athletes comment on value of hard work after a career high performance? We look up to these people because they, like us, started at the bottom to get where they are today.
The passion within the sports community is equal to no other. While coaches and players themselves do receive substantial attention, there are also even greater inspirers at work behind the scenes. Where would sports be without the hard work and determination of the athletics directors? Perhaps the most inspiring of them all is Mary Alice Hill. Ms. Hill took what she learned as an international track and field competitor, and ran with it (pun intended). Her experiences on the track not only lead to her training Olympians and record setting teams, but she would also become the first ever Women's Director of Athletics. It is because of Mrs. Hill and her dedication that she fought and succeeded in gaining equal rights for women's sports to be equally funded and televised by national law. It is for these reasons that she is often heralded as the greatest heroine ever for women's sports.
And so, it is for these reasons that, the game doesn't stop when the clock hits zero or the race is over, it lives on inspiring in the hearts and minds of people the world over.
