We can all learn much about how Life works from Johnny Manziel. Johnny Football (JFF for short) can teach us how all of our dreams can come true. He also taught us how we can make our own circumstances and not be bound by circumstances making us!
We all learn best by watching others become what they say, rather than from just what they say. Johnny's parents were teachers by example as they decided to leave their town where the Manziel name was known for the oil rich family. They moved to a small town, but Johnny had big dreams despite the size of the town he lived in. His dream was to become a Texas College Football Quarterback. He played football for a small Texas high school where supposedly no one makes it to big Texas college ball. As a senior in high school Johnny was a remarkable small team quarterback and all the major colleges turned him down. Despite the circumstances he continued to pursue his dream.
Johnny taught us that we can make our own circumstances and no better example was how circumstances turned his way with Texas A&M. The coach at the time was replaced with a coach that liked to play Johnny Football. The quarterback slated to start before JFF decided to play at another out of state school. During his freshman year, where he had to sit out and be red shirted, he was told to practice being RGIII before the Baylor game...the defense told the new coach that Johnny was tougher to get down than Johnny. Despite the circumstance he continued to pursue his dream.
Then just prior to him starting in 2012, Johnny was arrested and at a low in his Life. Just a few months later 10 million people watched him as he beat Alabama the #1 ranked team in the country. A couple months after that he won the coveted "Heisman Trophy", being the first freshman to ever do so. Within six months Johnny Football went from circumstances of being at the low end to the high end of Life, despite the circumstances.
Johnny Manziel, like his parents, has taught us through example that we are amazing creators of our Life. That we have the ability to go from circumstances changing our lives to us changing our circumstances by having a dream. Dream big and move your circumstances to the way you want them!
With Love and Joy.
