Ava overheard me and Isabelle talking about how stubborn our son Danny is. She asked What does stubborn really mean? I said it can be good or bad... like a guy who is driving around lost and refuses to stop for directions because hes SURE he can find the place... Or a coach who gets rejection after rejection and still invites, or who is five-star qualifying three months in a row but loses that one diamond right before the qualification is over each time - yet she STILL works on bringing that NEXT emerald coach up to diamond. Stubborn. Or some guy who wants to help International Justice Mission end slavery but can see that raising $500,000 is no easy feat. Stubborn can be a good thing, a bad thing, or it can be a GREAT thing. The theme of Summit is Never Give Up. Stubborn. Relentless. Focused on a goal. Believing in that goal with such total commitment that a rational person cant understand why you keep working so hard, why you keep posting about this mission, or why you are selling your stuff just so you can be at Summit and be part of the most significant event in the history of ending the trend of obesity. You stubborn people impress me. Way to be stubborn. In your pursuit of health and fitness, in reaching for your goals. I try to be stubborn right along with you. And with your help, or not, I will raise this $500,000 so we unlock that $500k matching grant for IJM. IJM does amazing work. They believe there is no place for slavery in this world. Theyre stubborn too.
