Tim Tebow. Just say the name and you will provoke talk among any group of people. Mothers will talk about how great of a guy he is; fathers will talk about his lack of throwing ability; daughters will talk about how beautiful he is. Regardless of which side of the Tebow spectrum you fall on, there is no denying that Tim Tebow is one of the most polarizing athletes in football's recent history. With that said, there are definitely lessons that one can take from the way Tim Tebow handles himself. Without further ado:
1- Be Humble-With all the love (and hate) that Tim Tebow receives, it would be easy for Tim to get a big head and forget about working hard. But Tebow does not do this, instead he works harder to make his haters believers.
2-Commit to what you believe in 100%-I am the first one to get tired of Tebow mentioning God in every interview that he partakes in. However, Tebow is committed 100% in his belief of God. And is that commitment that everyone can learn from. It is too often that someone begins a new journey, and upon reaching an obstacle he/she quits. If you commit 100% to living a healthy lifestyle then all of the challenges that you face will be far easier to handle.
3- Do not let others tell you that you cannot do something-This one goes hand and hand with commitment. 'For every successful person there is always a group of haters,'successful people have managed to put away all of the criticism and manifest that hate into fuel for their daily lives. If you can do the same, then there is no doubt that you will reach your goals.
Regardless of whether you believe in Tim Tebow as a quarterback, you should recognize a man who acts with the respect of others, and you should recognize a man who has put his work in both on and off the field.
Thanks for reading. JG
