And it's crazy you said that because my ninth grade basketball coach, his name was Mr. Ronnie Edmonds, and he told me that when I was 14 and he made me the captain of our basketball team.
But here's the thing about it.
I ended up playing division one college basketball, but I started out on the freshman B team.
So I wasn't I wasn't even a starter.
Yeah, I was on the bench for the B team and I was the captain.
So that doesn't make sense.
Right.
So you're the captain of the team that you don't play.
in the game for it.
I wasn't good enough to get in the game.
And he said, but I need you to pray before every game and I need you to lead these guys.
And eventually that leadership led me to being a starter on a division one basketball team and being the captain.
And so I learned it at 14 because somebody told me that they saw it in me.
And here's the big, the big idea or the thesis that I think that comes out of the question.
is that you don't know who you are because you are who you are.
You know who you are because people start to tell you who you are.
I think that greatness is discovered by the friction that happens between people rubbing up against each other.
And you'll know you're great because you don't have to tell anybody you are.
Somebody will tell you, hey, my life changed when you found your because, right?
When you started to operate in the thing that you do.
