Inspiration is all around us — in books, movies, stories that we hear from friends or read in the papers.
I was watching Any Given Sunday recently, and Al Pacino’s half-time speech to his football team in that movie made me break out in goose bumps. I leave you with the snippet that sent “shockwaves” through my system, followed by a clip of the speech itself. Hope you enjoy it!
You find out that life is just a game of inches. So is football. Because in either game, life or football, the margin for error is so small… On this team, we fight for that inch. On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch. Cause we know when we add up all those inches that’s going to make the fucking difference between WINNING and LOSING between LIVING and DYING.
See you with more spiritual thoughts next Sunday!
that’s a great speech! I often get goosebumps from speeches like this in movies. Glad to hear I’m not the only one!
stopping by from SITS! Have a great day!
Yeah, me too! I’ve been listening to this speech every night to keep myself motivated to go to the gym! Sometimes you need all the inspiration/motivation you can get!
