    “I grabbed this deck of cards, and I flipped a 7. And I started doing seven push-ups. I flipped a 6; I did six. I flipped a 9; I did nine. I flipped a 2; I did two. I flipped another 9; I did nine until I got all the way through the deck. Jack, Queen, King worth 10. Aces - 25 and Jokers - 50. Until I got sick and tired of what pain felt like in my gut…I shuffled them all over again, and I started doing sit-ups. I wanted to make sure sports wasn’t the reason I started training. It was to make sure another man never put his hands on my mama…" - Ray Lewis

      I definitely think he could use a movie...he was never convicted of a crime. Wrong place wrong time. You can’t fake his emotion, passion, pain. No one can act that good. Besides that, it doesn’t matter what he used to do, or has done. What matters is what he is doing koe

Continue to help our YOUNG MEN, as I recall the pain my son and daughters saw, even though they may not remember, because it was traumatic (trauma=PTSD)!

It takes a specula kind of person to sit in the company of death, to see the ugliest people have to offer and say “I can take more to be able to save more.” I pray you made it.

      The card story touched me. My mom went through abuse and had a hard life. I worked so hard to get into a good university so I could get us out of community government housing and poverty. In my first year of university, my mom passed away. These motivational videos (specifically Eric Thomas’ videos) got me through it. I can’t imagine not ending up successful - I still want it more than anything, especially in memory of her.

    The beginning was the saddest story. As a mother, I would never want my son to walk through this darkness. It changes you permanently. I am glad he shared his story. But the pain of having a mother who had said chose abusive men often and having to bury that to succeed, is a feat. Too many stories are like this across all nationalities. I pray every young man who lived this or in this today, finds his promise and freedom. God knows you and is near....make effort to reach Him. It is a life-changer.

    Reminds when I was in the army. We was doing are first ten mile road March. Full gear and even rocks in our rug sacks. It was several miles in. When we did a road March a deuce and a half road with us. Our drill sergeant said if you want to quit get in the back. I remember walking it was horrible. I kept looking at the truck. Drill sergeant walk up to me. Said once you get in the back the first time. Each time it will get easier. Than every time you are hurting you will quit private. This isn't forever what you are feeling. If you quit that will last forever. Keep thinking one more step. Than he just jogged up the line. I didn't look at the deuce and a half again. I kept looking at the ground. Kept thinking five more minutes. After five minutes I thought five more. Until we finished. Never forgot what that drill sergeant said.

    I ride the bench for my highschool team. I know I’m better than 5 of the players who play ahead of me and thats real talk. I choke during practice I freeze due to lack of confidence because I think to myself “I’ll never be as good as these kids” I get in my own head. I want it tho. I want it more than anybody. I want it for my family and I want it for everybody who is doubting me. I will get out of my own head. I will achieve my goal.

    His words are truly so inspirational. I actually got the pleasure of meeting the man himself. I said to him that he is my hero and how much speeches like this meant to me. He had the biggest smile on his face that someone took his words literally and applied it. Got a great picture too.

    All my life I've been told that I can't, I cant do anything right, I cant commit to anything, i cant be a leader, I dont know how to work hard, I cant be the best. Those closest to me, my own dad, everyone has always doubted me. That's my motivation. To prove everyone wrong. To show them what I'm capable of, and I'm already getting there. Im the captain of my football team, best defensive player there and I'm only a sophomore. I've never felt anything better than the moment when I got to say "I told you I could do it"

    I got hurt my senior year of HS football. Torn labrum in my hip, torn acl, mcl, and a stress fracture also in my hip. Doctors told me I would never play again. I had offers from several D3 schools and I couldn’t take any of them. They all gave up on me when I got hurt. For months, I cried, sat around, even tried the easy way out. Then I stumbled upon Ray, Kobe, Ali, Goggins and I started listening. I started the 52 cards, putting in hours on and off the field not for everyone who told me I can’t and I won’t, but that I can say to myself I did and I will. I am a frosh in college now, still working towards a walk on whoever will take me. Thanks Ray.
