    By: Devon Harris | - In one of the scenes from the Cool Runnings, the German driver was bullying
    Junior. Needless to say Yul Brenner, Junior's teammate, was not only upset with

  • What Do You Say When You Talk To Yourself?
    By: Devon Harris | - Contrary to popular belief, there is nothing wrong in talking out loud to yourself;
    even in public. Its when you begin to respond that you should have cause for

    actions and habits. By monitoring and exerting control over this inner dialogue we
    can begin to effectively control every other part of our l ...

    people enjoy deep personal relationships, close friendships, good health, a great
    income and all the other trappings of success while others are peering in through
    the shop window of life asking why not me?
    Is it family background, heredity, or education? Could it be their level of

  • Vision Points The Way
    By: Devon Harris | - Shortly after I had completed my second season of bobsledding, I found myself
    back in Jamaica sitting in the officer's tent as usual talking about bobsledding. On
    this occasion I was talking about the progress our team had made in the short
    time we were involved in the sport. One senior officer, expecting to get a good
    laugh at my expense, asked me to speak in more detail about the progress we had
    made. He wanted to hear about start times and race results and how th ...

    the face of incredible odds have succeeded in achieving their dreams. Conversely,
    there are equal numbers of examples of those who have had a relatively easy
    time and what seemed to be a straight path to success and yet failed to realize
    their aspirations. It seems that the thing that made the most significant difference
    was the strength of their belief. Our beliefs are powerful. After diagnos ...

  • Teamwork Makes The Dream Work
    By: Devon Harris | - It was a typical traveling day in the tropics. Well bronzed tourists getting ready to
    board their flights back home, linger in the airport; in two minds about extending
    their time in paradise or getting back to the real world. New arrivals scurry
    through immigration eager to get their vacation started. I too was anxious to get
    beyond the hustle and bustle of the airport. I was looking forward to meeting
    some of the members of the group I would be speaking to. ...

    By: Devon Harris | - A few days ago my nine year old son, Brandon, asked me if I was excited about
    Christmas. The little fellows inquiring mind has an insatiable curiosity. Whenever
    I hear, Daddy, can I ask you a question? I know that like a skilled trial attorney,
    there will be four or five follow-up questions. Anyway, I digress. I paused before I

    with the same enthusiasm that I did when I was his age ...

  • Spring Into Action
    By: Devon Harris | - The cold turbulent winds of winter have ceased. For months it settled on the
    earth, the greenness of life faded, trees in full bloom now barren; and we lock
    ourselves indoors or in heavy coats craving protection from the elements. Of such
    too is the winter of life - cold, lonesome, desperate, tragic. A time of shaken
    confidence, unanswered prayers and blurred vision. Spring is now here. A
    welcome respite from the bleak landscape that winter brought. The snow is

    By: Devon Harris | - After the Olympics in 1988 our team used to make frequent trips to The United
    States participating in one public relation event or another. On one such trip while
    attending a Lakers Game at the old Forum, I met mike Tyson. At the time he was
    the youngest world heavy weight-boxing champion. In fact he had landed a
    devastating blow to a fellow Jamaican, Trevor Berbick to win the title. In the
    ensuing years Iron Mike annihilated any opponent who had the audaci ...

  • Pursuit Of Excellence
    By: Devon Harris | - In a bobsled competition, the race often continues long after the winners have
    been declared and in some cases, the medals have been presented. Interestingly,
    despite this fact, I have never seen any of the remaining teams approach their
    runs with a nonchalant attitude. You can easily make the case that completing the
    race is a mere formality since the winners have already been declared. However,
    what I have observed instead are individuals pushing and racing with t ...

    take a meteoric rise to fame, fortune and high achievement. Their stories, it
    would appear, are the stuff that fairy tales are made of. They wished it, and
    abracadabra! Everything that they wanted to be; have, or do was manifested in
    their lives. I am sure however, that if we were to interview any of them they
    would tell you of the many years of toil, sacrifice and painstaking hard work it

    stories, one thing stood out. There was one thing that they all shared. Dreams.
    They all harbored a dream to be an Olympian. Whether or not they win a medal
    they have lived that dream of representing their country at the Olympic Games.
    Regardless of nationality, race, gender or faith, we all have the ability to dream

  • How Boxing Evolved As A Popular Sport
    By: prolificrandy | - The ancient Greeks were at it several thousand years ago. Bashing up one another turned into a sport and later came to be called Boxing. Hermes a Greek God was the patron of sports among many other things. He is credited with inventing Boxing and was very fond of his creation. He was actually an Olympian God who was the patron God of all athletes. His fondness for boxing probably originated from the sense of triumph one gets after bashing up the opponent.

Well that view is little bit stereotypical these days, and if you dont believe me, just ask any of the female Olympic cycling gold medalists! Th ...
