Then suddenly, you get the call. You are thrust into the game. Are you ready? What will you do to provide a spark in your life and to those around you?

GO FOR THE PYLON

You don’t have to make a dramatic interception or score a last-second touchdown to be considered a winner. You can have an impact on someone’s life with simple acts of kindness. Consider a way to donate your time. Instead of spending a Saturday on the golf course or at the lake, stop in and give your time at a homeless shelter. Volunteer at a soup kitchen or go through your closet and find good clothes to take to the Salvation Army. Time is your most valued commodity. When you give it, you will come off the bench and have an impact.

Make family your highest priority. If you have children, try never to put anything in front of their needs. There are times when work must come first, but that should be a rare occasion. If your son has a game in the evening, you need to try to be there. When your daughter has a dance class, make the effort to support her. Your family needs your attention more than your boss. Take a Sunday afternoon and pamper your spouse. When you put your family first, the rest falls into place.
