Never give in

Last time we talked about dealing with wishy-washy people.
Today we’ll talk about winning against the odds.
Former star quarterback Joe Montana was in town the other day.
While he was here to speak to a hospital event, he spoke with us.
For non-sports fans, Joe’s teams won four NFL Super Bowls.
Joe was voted Most Valuable Player in three of those games.
Joe had a cool head and a sure hand with a football.
He was a precision passer with great receivers.
His teams won at Notre Dame and the San Francisco 49ers.
Joe never gave in. He came into games with his team far behind.
In NFL games, Joe engineered 31 come-from-behind victories.
That was in the toughest, most bruising league in pro sports.
How many times have you felt it was too late to do anything?
Have you thrown up your hands or just written it off?
Winston Churchill rallied his country with "Never give in" messages.
That was in the darkest days of WWII with daily German bombings.
It takes steel in the spine and great resolve to keep going.
Don’t let life and adversity grind you down. Stick to your mission.
