Rudy – Never Give Up

I met a guy named Rudy while dining with my wife and daughters.  He was our server that day.  I have a vague memory of this meeting, but Rudy remembers every detail.  During that meeting I asked Rudy “what are you doing with your life?”  Rudy had been a boxer and loved it, from the people to the actual fight.  Now, those of you wondering why you would want to punch someone else in the face, just remember that boxing is a sport which requires talent, training and dedication.  Apparently, Rudy was hurt and gave up boxing.  Rudy found himself in a spot where he did not know what else to do with his life.  I asked him if he could be killed while participating in this sport and his answer was “no.”  (Phew!)  We proceeded to discuss not giving up, as I have a lot to say about this subject.  Sometimes we just need to believe in possibilities and hope for success, even when it seems impossible.  Even more, we need to be around people who believe in us.

I received a call about a month later from Rudy.  He told me how I had inspired him to move forward.  He had trained for his first fight since being injured.  When he got to that fight he gave it up to God and did his best.  Rudy won that fight and was thankful for that seemingly random conversation we had the month before. 

So often in life, we are all in a fight for something.  The people who surround us may be in a fight for things we don’t see at first glance.  No matter where you are in your life, you have the power to impact people in ways you cannot imagine.  I believe these opportunities put before us are not accidents.  So, be positive in your daily interactions.  Smile and enjoy that conversation because you never know how your words may help create change or action.  You might touch someone at just the right time.  My call to you: Go out and change the world!  

Have a blessed day,

Ron Heagy
