Ever since I was a little kid...

...I've always wanted to go to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.
 
I told myself, if I ever get to the Cleveland area, I'm going to the museum. 
 
This year, I had the opportunity to conduct four strategic storytelling sessions for business leaders in "The Land." 
 
So you know where I went.
 
It was a masterclass in high performance, long-term discipline, and team culture.
 
Here’s what stood out:
 
-There’s an entire section on the evolution of the game.
-Every legend in the Hall wasn’t just talented, they were relentless.
-The Hall honors not just players but coaches, strategists, innovators.
 
One quote hit me hard:

“It’s not the will to win that matters; everyone has that. It’s the will to prepare to win that matters.”

– Paul “Bear” Bryant
 
That’s true in football.
That’s true in business.
That’s true in life.
 
If you’ve never been to the Hall of Fame in Canton, I highly recommend it.
 
It’ll remind you of what’s possible when preparation meets passion.
