THE INTERVIEW
I SAT DOWN WITH THE BEST COACH IN THE WORLD. Maybe the best in the entire Universe. When it comes to assessing talent...
... he is the word.
This wasn't any sit down, it was after the biggest A race of my life, and he was there to review my files.
I was very impressed at his thoroughness.
Behind him, on the wall, was every race I'd ever done along with all the effort I'd put in.
The A's,
B's,
C's.
He was quiet while I took it all in. Frankly, it was incomprehensible that he could pull all this together.
The training rides I'd done,
and the ones I'd skipped or cut short.
All the foods I'd eaten,
the herbalorganic foofoo and the countless apple fritters.
The hours and hours of sleep and resting with my feet up,
and all the nights I'd bingewatched Star Trek and cut my shuteye short.
Everything was there.
All the good and bad cataloged.
The handful of races I'd won, the smattering of podiums I'd climbed, and the manymany times I'd hung my head in defeat.
I trained my eyes on him, waiting for his final judgement.
He looked at me lovingly, then changed the data on the wall.
This was an entirely different life.
Whoever this was demonstrated the discipline of someone destined to develop their maximum potential...
... and the results showed.
It wasn't the outstanding results, it was the lack of defeat. Even in when he came up short the images of this racer were radiant because...
... he knew he'd given his all.
I looked closer, and saw it was me and the life I could have had...
... if I'd followed the greatest coach ever.
The greatest coaches clearly see all our potential, and all the times we neglect to follow their lead.
Maybe that's why I prefer clear bottles, because I can clearly see when they are dirty...
... inside and out.
There's just something about knowing everything is clean.
Here's a clean offer.
