Front-Runners


I have learned throughout my time working with athletics that it is very very easy to become a front-runner. A front-runner is a person who, when in the lead, is untouchable, but when faced with a deficit, they can never quite come back. The only thing is, in sports and in life, your not always going to be out front in every game you play. There is going to come a time when you have to battle back and find a way to win late in the game. If you can't do so then you will find yourself not near as successful as you could be. Mike Ditka once said, "Success is never permanent, and failure is never final." All front-runners need to keep these words close to them. Their success is never a permanent thing. And when they do stumble and fall, because everyone will, it is up to them to find the will and desire to make a comeback and make sure that their failure is never final.
