Lesson from Basketball - Learning Something New Is Emotional

I think I really did feel bad about how the game turned out.
Its really hard starting back as an underdog with something I was so good at.
There are some times when I just fumbled the ball and made no so good decisions.

Its interesting how we can get stick just into what we see good at in day to day life and into our habits.

Basketball reminds me how truly challenging it can be to really develop a skill. To change your rountine to really accept a new way of life.

You have got to be ready to get up again when you fall down. When people might laugh or attack you because your are trying something new.

Its during these dark times when you the new kid on the block is still developing that the reasons and the missions and all the plans become blurred. All the good judgement disappears.
Don't tell anyone but you and I both know how hard it is to keep true to your big dream/plan when people ridicule it.
Yeah, you and I both know how the emotion boils within you. Shh keep it to yourself

These dark times are the times that really determine the kind of player you are.
Its what you do with these emotional and bleak times that really determines who you will become.

Stay focused.
Always keep your mission in focus. Of course this means that you have to really have a good mission.
Not goals you can do without them sometimes, but having that mission and focus is very important.

Wow thanks for listening a load has been lifted!

Giving Back

I have not blogged here in a while, and that is because much of my energy was diverted into building my core Blog in terms of my career.

www.coreykgraham.com/Blog


This Blog is just about expressing myself. Its for those moments, full of emotion and full of clarity.
This time is the feeling if great joy and peace. And I am proud. I am feeling this way because I just invested my night into a 'charitable' cause.
My basketball team's sports club, Checker Hall Braves. I spent some time on building their web presence, like many things we do, it was no back breaking work. It was just about making a commitment to making it happen, and I did that! Also it is now my area of expertise. And a few moments of my time in my area of expertise is worth so much to the Club as they didn't have someone with this particular expertise.
I might not know anything about law. But it take a few moments for someone else to sort that out.
Its not just money no profit organizations need. They need the expertise.

Anyways
Check it out and let me know what you think!

P.S. I am also going to be building on the Caribbean Entertainment Search. I am allowing other people to use it also. It was really a personal tool, but the few people I let use it absolutely love it!
