“Send Coach John a message”

Found a great post connected to “The Masters” (@TheMasters) - this post from Brad Stulberg (@BStulberg) where he shares a wonderful picture of golf fans watching “One of the best parts of the Masters golf tournament: the no phone rule. It’s awesome to see so many people locked in and sharing an experience with full presence. As I write in The Way of Excellence: “Excellence requires intimacy—minimizing distractions and getting as close as possible to your pursuit. It is a powerful antidote to modern feelings of disconnection, dissociation, and numbness.” I have no doubt a big part of the aura at the Masters is its intimacy. This would be impossible if everyone had their phones. There’s much to learn from this, and not just for golf.” I shared two posts about this on my Twitter / X account and I’ll do the same on my Facebook page too - and I’ll try to put them on Instagram too. The other one was from Matt Van Swol (@mattvanswol) where he shared this thought: “Say what you want about The Masters... But there is nowhere else on planet earth where you will see a photo of humans like this where not a single one of them is looking at a phone. Truly one of the most beautiful things.” As I’m typing this, I am asking for you to go use your “device” to look at people having an amazing time, when they are not using their “devices.” HA… as I’m typing this line, I had to laugh out loud as to what I’m asking you to do. I know I need to stay off my “devices”, but there are good things out there that we can connect with to help us live our best lives. Part of this for me coming up is a breakfast connection with one of my longest known & best friends, Scott. We have known each other for roughly 55 years and we had breakfast celebrating my birthday back a couple of months ago, and now it’s his turn. This is one of those things that I know I need to continue to make time for because it’s really what life is all about. Great lessons and reminders from sports, especially (what I feel) is the greatest sporting event around. Thanks for listening.
