[00:01:56] Oh, you’re welcome. I’ve been, Tracking you and wondering how you’ve [00:02:00] been. And you’re not in our city anymore, so we miss you for sure. And, um, I wanted to talk to you. You’re, you’re, you’re really wise and I don’t know if you like, recognize that for your age, I work with a lot of, you know, young athletes, student athletes, college athletes, your age.
[00:02:19] And um, I wanted to talk to you about, Right now in my newsletter month for October, we’re talking about clarity, grounding, and belonging like and how, What does that mean to people? And I wanted to get your take on this. What does it mean to you to be grounded? To belong, to find a path, to know what your purpose is, All those kind of go in the same soup.
[00:02:46] Yeah. And, uh, yeah, I’d love your take. You go to break it down. Uh, and, uh, just help me out as I, you know, try to organize this. Uh, I’m gonna start with being grounded. I think, uh, to be [00:03:00] grounded is to like be present, to be where your feet is and to, you know, Whatever’s going on around you at that time is to be there.
[00:03:10] You know what I’m saying? Like mentally, emotionally, and obviously you’re there physically, um, you know, just being, um, attentive, you know what I’m saying? Like within like, you know, the conversations you having, uh, not just. Having a conversation just to have it, but to, uh, understand, to, um, you know, be understood.
[00:03:35] So, uh, to be grounded, I mean, what I, what I, what I think it is, is mostly to be present, to be where your feet is and to, you know, have that, uh, stability in the, in the. You know what I’m saying? You don’t wanna be unstable in the present. Like right now we’re having this podcast Zoom meeting and I’m where my [00:04:00] feet is.
[00:04:00] Like, I, I don’t wanna be, you know, texting or scrolling through ins instant while, you know, we’re having a con conversation. Anything. So to be grounded as to be firm, to be solid, uh, yeah, that’s, that’s. What I, I, I kind of take being grounded, uh, to feel as if you belong. Um, I would say first off, you know, know your, your worth and your value, and then see if you’re getting, you know, if your values being, you know, used, you know, if you’re wanted and.
[00:04:42] You know, you want to be, to feel like you belong is to know that you, That’s a good one. I’m gonna, I’m gonna lead you here a little bit because Yeah. To feel like you belong. Let’s, let’s point this in a direction of team. Yeah. Okay. Being on a team and [00:05:00] because as you have much. Experience in team and in different football teams across the nation.
[00:05:07] There are ways where the team makes it easier to belong, to feel like you belong, to include people. So how does that, how does that work and how, if someone’s not feeling like they belong, what would you say? What would you suggest they do? So what does it mean to belong? How does a, how does a team do? And maybe how does the team not do that?
[00:05:32] And if someone’s not feeling like they belong on a soccer team, on a volleyball team, on a speech and debate team Yeah. What do they do? Uh, Cause you’re the guy, you’re, you’re, you’re a great go-to guy for these types of, you know. Yeah. So, alright. You go to feel like, to feel like you belong, like I said, like I mentioned, you know, a little earlier, is to know your value.
[00:05:55] Um, also know your. And, um, if you’re not comfortable with your role, [00:06:00] you know, you have that conversation with, you know, the people above you that have you in your role. You know, you, you want to be open and, um, you want to express how you feel because you don’t want to be somewhere where you’re not wanted or you’re not getting, like, you know, you’re not being included or getting your worth of value.
[00:06:25] Um, so to feel like you belong, you know, is, you know, I, I, I, you know, I keep, The only thing, the only, like the things that I can really think of is your role, your value, you know what I’m saying? Knowing your value and, you know, getting your value. You know what I’m saying? And, um, if you, if you feel like you don’t belong, you know, You want to be considerate for others and you don’t wanna be, you wanna be selfless, but at the same time, it’s also good too to like, you [00:07:00] know, think about yourself too.
[00:07:02] You know what I’m saying? You want to be the best version of you for others, you know what I’m saying? Like, you don’t want to be in an environment or you know, anywhere where you’re not appreciated. You know what I’m saying? Everybody wants to be recognized and appreciated and, um, You know, as a, as a football player myself, knowing the, the, the, the, like I would say, players’ roles and values personally, me, like, I try to make everyone feel appreciated from the best guy on the team to.
[00:07:38] The scout team player, you know what I’m saying? Like, I tried to, you know, personally, like engage with my teammates so that they know that they’re appreciated. And from a guy like me, you know, some people, you know, may see me as a, uh, impactful player or, you know, Just, you [00:08:00] know, a guy with a big role on the team and I have, you know, a lot of influence.
[00:08:05] So I try to use my influence to show everyone that’s involved in a team that they appreciated just with conversations, with engagement, with just anything that will build them up and ultimately, like you. If you’re doing it with the right intentions and good intentions, you, you get, you get, you know, you get the good out of it too as well.
[00:08:27] So if you don’t, if you, if you don’t really, if you don’t feel like you’re getting, you know, if you don’t feel like you belong, you know, you have to be aware of the situation. And, and also too, don’t, like, don’t minimize yourself. Don’t, don’t cheat yourself. Don’t cut yourself short. Like if you know you’re a diamond.
[00:08:51] Don’t treat yourself as like a, I don’t know, a pebble, you know what I’m saying? Like get your diamonds worth. Get your diamonds [00:09:00] worth, and you know, like I said earlier, like be the best version of you. Like put yourself in the best situation and best environment so you can be the best for others. You know, we’re ultimately here as individuals, as humans, to serve each other, to build each.
[00:09:19] One hand watches the other. You know what I’m saying? You scratch my back. I scratch your back. You know? So we’re here for each other. Be the best version of you for others, and, um, you know, don’t teach yourself, don’t belittle yourself. And you know, just. Yeah, that’s, that’s, that’s kind of how I can sum it up, um, for the most.
[00:09:43] Okay. That’s good. Yeah. So, you know, you were saying about don’t belittle yourself, and that is a problem for sure. In our society where we are taught from a young age to. To say if we, if we compliment ourselves mm-hmm. , then the second [00:10:00] statement is usually to downplay that compliment. Have you noticed that?
[00:10:04] Like you’ll say, you know, Oh, this is a really nice bag, but I it was only $2 at the thrift store. Yeah. Like little things like that about, and I, athletes are just the same. But it, you know, I didn’t, it was a lucky, it was a lucky catch, or, um, it’s interesting how you say like, don’t downplay yourself. I think it’s very important in a lot of, we just do it so naturally and um, So, Cause we’re our, we’re our own worst, um, you know, worst critic, you know?
[00:10:33] Yeah, yeah. Really hard on ourselves. And um, like I said, we have to know our value. We have to know our value. Like, it’s okay to be hard on yourself, but at the same time too, like, build yourself up, pat yourself on the back. As much as we are here to serve others, we need to build ourselves up. And, you know, going back to this again, be the best version of you for.
[00:10:55] And ultimately it’s, it’s going to benefit you, [00:11:00] you know? So, um, what’s the hardest part about this? That you, because everybody has challenges and you’re, you’re no different. So in the challenge of being your best person, but when people don’t see your value, Yeah. How do you stay positive? How do you stay grounded so you stay grounded simply, you know, Through this conversation.
[00:11:24] Like I, I’m like, I’m like, so tunnel vision on the topic and the things that’s popping up in my head is like a, a record that’s playing over and over and over. So if you’re not getting your value, if you’re not, if, and how to stay grounded is to know your value. How do you know your value? So yeah, describe that for someone who, like you and I have talked about this a lot, but some people.
[00:11:51] They’re like, What do you mean? Yeah. So you know, your value, the way you can know your value is simply by [00:12:00] building yourself up. You know, like I said, everything, everything is kind of correlated and, you know, these keywords that I’m using, I’m probably being repetitive with it, but like, I’m trying to, like, this is what’s in my head right now and this is what like, you know, I can only like get, like, take out.
[00:12:15] I can’t, you know, think of anything. You know, your value by building yourself up. You know, as, as much as like when you do something bad, you’re, of course you’re gonna, Oh man, like, I, I gotta do better next time. Or, you know, sometimes people are like, I suck for that. But when you do something good, like, you know, praise yourself a little bit, you know, I’m not saying to do it in an arrogant, cocky way, but you have to build yourself up.
[00:12:41] You have to look yourself in a mirror and know who you are. Know your strengths. Know your weaknesses, Even when, even when people around you are not giving you the praise that you deserve. Right, Right. So, and also too, like you have to be in control [00:13:00] of your emotions on, you know, your attitude. You know what I’m saying?
[00:13:04] Your approach. So when you’re not, you’re not getting that, you’re not, you know, getting what you feel as if you. You stay humble. You know the word humble. You think being humble is being humble through the good. Like when someone you know does something really good, you’re like, you know, and you’re really calm and relaxed about it, they’re like, Oh, he’s humble, but you got also gotta be humble through the bad as well.
[00:13:34] You know what I’m saying? Having that equal playing field. , you don’t get too high, you don’t get too low. You’re like in that humble level. So even when you do something bad, you have that, that, that, that mentality, that thought like the next me will be the best, the, uh, the better me. You know what I’m saying?
[00:13:49] The next play, the next day, the next anything, anything. And whatever it is, whatever’s next is gonna be the better you. It’s gonna be the best version of you because, you know, [00:14:00] I’ve, I’ve heard this, um, from someone. You going, you gonna take two Ls, you gonna take a loss and you gonna learn, You gonna get a W.
[00:14:11] So you, How’s that? You know? So when you lose, don’t think of it as a loss. You know, You know you lost learn next, next time you know you’re winning. You know what I’m saying? So learn from your losses and um, Just believe in yourself. Believe in yourself. Like anything that we we do in this world, like you cannot be the, the best version of you without believing yourself.
[00:14:38] You know, confidence in ourselves is very important, and you can’t get that confidence from anybody else. You can’t get it from a friend. You can’t get it from you. They can, they can help you with it, but it everything, it starts. It starts with then trusting yourself, trusting your creator, trusting that you’ll win at the end.
[00:14:59] [00:15:00] You know, it’s interesting, the trust. Trust always comes up. Yes. Trust. Talk about trust a little bit. How do you trust your teammates? How do you trust your coaches even when they’re not? Yeah. So you, you, you trust, so I can, you know, I can speak for trusting in your teammates. You trust your teammates.
[00:15:19] Through when you go through hard times, because as teammates you will go through hard times, like in, in a lot of different ways. You trust your teammates and you will know simply based off how they reacted in that situation. You know, trust is not verbally, it’s more based off actions. It’s based off how someone responds, you know?
[00:15:40] So you watch this person respond from them falling. Then you can trust them to get through adversity. You know, when, when, when stuff starts to get hard and you know, you know, they start, that person starts to cave in, then you prob like in the back [00:16:00] of your head, you know, he’s a good person, you know, individually as a friend, but on the, on the team, when stuff starts to get hard, you came in.
[00:16:07] So like, can I trust them? You know? So you trust, you trust those like you. When they’ve been battle tested, when, um, you know, trust is, is built, you know, and it’s earned and it’s earned based off actions. You know, pe like, you know, it’s just like the word, I love you or I trust you. You know? Right. Can say it.
[00:16:31] Yeah. Anybody can say it, but it is more of an action thing. Yeah. I’ve heard you got like, love is a verb. I love that state. So, you know, you know, it’s just, you know, actions. You know what you, what you get and what you see from someone is how you love and how you trust them. All right. Grounding, belonging.
[00:16:54] So another thing about that area of the body that we’re talking about in my newsletters this month that I love that [00:17:00] your input on, we talk a lot. So you guys that, so , I just wanted to get something on, um, on tape, you know. So I remember, um, last season talking about trusting your teammates and touching, you know, touching their back.
[00:17:14] And I’ve been talking to some of my clients about how to, to receive trust and also to, to give it, but to receive trust is also just as hard where. You can hear it, but to feel that you can trust somebody or you can feel that you can receive, um, something from them, you know, uh, friendship for me in a time in our lives right now where we’re receiving, you know, meals.
[00:17:43] And, um, groceries and things like that to help us cuz we have some stuff going on that it’s, it’s hard for us and to receive trust. Like, I remember we were talking about it last season where like you were touching some students, some of your teammates, and telling them you trusted them. Yeah. [00:18:00] And then it, it took a minute, right.
[00:18:01] First, the, the first reaction is always what, what? What do you, Yeah. And then after a while, then it just becomes this huge thing. And they trust. And you trust and it’s like, wow, that’s, You don’t even have to say it after a while. Right. Right. It’s, um, it’s very empowering because, you know, see, people would tell you, I love you.
[00:18:26] Right. We, we hear that, but you normally don’t hear outta nowhere. I trust. Someone, someone will randomly tell you, I love you, but they won’t randomly tell you, I trust you. So for that reinsurance and to empower that relationship and that bond between you and that person, it, it will, it will like blow their mind like in a, in a good way.
[00:18:49] Like you just, you know, you, you, you let your hand on their shoulders, like just look them eye to eye. Cuz this is, this is all interpersonal. You know what I’m saying? So you lay your [00:19:00] hand, I’m like, I trust. Man that’s gonna hit so deep to the core. Like they not even gonna really understand it because you probably the first person that told them, I trust you verbally just outta nowhere, randomly.
[00:19:12] Think about it, if her, I love you randomly, but not I trust you. No, you’re right. You know, So, you know, and trust in love, they go hand in hand. They go hand in hand. So like, you know, uh, last year at New Mexico, like as a return man. I’m just one, one of 11 on this return team. In football, we all know like you’re gonna need your teammates, special teams, you’re gonna need every single guy, especially being a return man out there by yourself, and you got 10 guys in front of you just leading you to the promise land, to the touchdown, you know, and it’s, and it’s one of 11, you know, one guy mess up the whole play can be.
[00:19:56] You know, and, uh, you, you, you helped me and you, um, you told me to [00:20:00] exercise, manifesting, putting my trust and giving my trust and receiving their trust so that we can get the best result out of that play we can. So, you know, I, uh, I exercised the manifesting trust. I manifested, and I verbally went to them and told them too, you know, and it was just so powerful, you know.
[00:20:24] The result of the play just beating up to it. It’s just like the confidence that I had and I, and I felt the confidence that they had, like, it was just like, it was just so, like, so real, you know what I’m saying? To be true. And, um, just being able to build that, that bond and relationship and confidence within trust amongst each other was just, you know, mind blowing how easy it it is just by telling someone.
[00:20:51] I trust you, you know, and, and I think, uh, it really does something to the relationship. Between two people. You [00:21:00] know them verbally hearing that randomly, you know? Yeah. It’s interesting because we, I, like you said, we do hear, I love you, but you don’t hear, I trust you. Right. And it’s almost deeper than love is.
[00:21:12] It’s almost thrown around. It’s not almost, it’s thrown around, you know, Hey bro, I love you. Hey, I love you. But you know, and trust is a big thing. And it is. It’s interesting because trust should come before love. Right. and, but it’s, it, it’s hard to say, I trust you. Right. So that was, I remember that play.
[00:21:31] I’m gonna have to, I’m gonna try to put that on this podcast because I was there watching that and I remember watching you going Trust. Do you, you know, I could see you across the, across the way. And, um, I just love that I, um, you know, we were trying that and it manifested and it was just really cool to see in, uh, in action, you know?
[00:21:51] Yeah. It was, Yeah, it’s real. Yeah. How, How is that going in your life? Non-football, What’s that [00:22:00] exactly? Trust, love? Are you able to do that? Because, you know, a lot of athletes have a hard time transitioning that type of feeling. Like, you know, they do anything for their teammate. They really, you know what I mean?
[00:22:13] Then, then pulling that onto daily life. Uh, you, you are right ma. The transition is, you know, tough because, uh, in a, in a team sport, in a, in a, a big team like football and with coaches, you know, you’re kind of forced to have these relationships, which it’s okay, you know, which is okay cuz when these relationships before, you don’t know how long it’s gonna take you down the line, down the road.
[00:22:43] So you. A lot of us, like, like myself, are like grateful for these forced relationships, you know, and, uh, transition that into the world and just outside of football, you [00:23:00] know, and you know, you, you, you really, the world is changing a lot. You know, people, hearts and minds are changing and, um, when you stay traditional and you don’t.
[00:23:15] Convert to the modernized, you know, way of like living and loving and trusting. Then you kind of like stand out, you know? So like I try to come off genuinely with the, the, the right intentions. The best intentions, the intentions of love for real, because. The reason why I’m able to give off love and genuine and pure love is because I know where my love is coming from.
[00:23:43] I know where love is rooted from. You know, love is rooted from God ultimately, you know, so when we know that love for my creator and what he has in store for us, his promises, that is real love. That’s real [00:24:00] love. So when you are able to receive that love from our creator, you’re able. Genuinely give it off to others, you know?
[00:24:08] And like I said, like the world is, is changing, It’s changing. And I try to stay traditional and, uh, stand traditional. Like, I kind of stand, I, I stand like out a little bit. Just the way I genuinely love. Like my love is genuine, you know? And, uh, I like, you know, it’s, it’s, it is, that is a, um, Definitely a question like I would really have to reflect on, because I never really thought about, you know, the trust part outside of football.
[00:24:43] You know what I’m saying? So like we, we trust our family. Most of my friends come within football. Very, very, very few of them come outside of football, which I do have some friends outside of football, but,
[00:24:57] We, we, we get, we, we get [00:25:00] that unconditional love and trust from family, you know, And, and that’s, that’s, uh, we’re born into that, you know what I’m saying? But the, the trust and love that, that, that should be built from someone that’s not within your family is it’s, it’s not how it used to be. You know? So it’s, it’s tough.
[00:25:22] You. And to, to go into like relationships between, you know, uh, a woman and a man. Like the, the, the relate the trust factor is, is, is tough. And it’s hard because of our, in like the, the, the things that are influencing love and trust, you know, it’s, it’s the music, um, was being placed on tv. Um, you know, the, the, the, the higher up agendas, you know, they don’t, they don’t want [00:26:00] two becoming one, which is more powerful than anything, you know?
[00:26:03] Yeah. When I two becoming one, a man, uh, a man and a female coming together into, into marriage ultimately and becoming, which is, which is very powerful in, in today’s world, they don’t want that, you know, so, Our, you know, generation, the world is being influenced by the influencers and they’re not promoting being genuine.
[00:26:28] They’re not promoting being pure, you know, they’re not promoting that. So it’s, it’s, it’s tough trying to love on those that are, that are not coming from the same place that I’m coming from. And then ask me, being genuine with the right intentions, you know, like I’m not looking. To love or trust on someone for personal gains, right?
[00:26:52] You know, I want to be able to, one hand washes the other. I wanna be able to build each other up like a partnership. Partnership. [00:27:00] I wanna be able to build each other up so, You know? Yeah. There’s a lot of influence that’s against that. Yeah. You have to, I think you guys, in your generation, you just have to keep fighting for it.
[00:27:11] Yeah. I think that in the, in on the, the bottom line is that it is something that many people want, and so just, just keep focusing on being one person’s. Person. Right. Having one person. It’s, it’s so amazing. You know, John and I are on our 22nd year of marriage and, um, I know, Yeah. And you know, there’s, there, it’s, it’s never easy.
[00:27:37] Like, but it’s so cool when you have that one person and you know, you don’t have to. You know, you can count on them and they can count on you, and they can, you, you can be ticked off and wanna kick them across the, the world. And you can , you can, you know, uh, be [00:28:00] really upset with them. But you know that even anger doesn’t take stuff away.
[00:28:05] And in your, and I agree with you that in your generation at the moment, one little anger moment. And then, and then the whole grounding is gone. Like the whole, You can’t trust it. Yes. And so that’s why I keep asking you, you know, and all of you guys that I work with, like what is trust? What is grounding?
[00:28:25] Because you guys are in a battle. You’re, you’re able to, you know, through the thick and thin, through the adversity, even though you want to, you know, kick them across the world. Like you have that trust factor like, We’ve been here before and we know we can get through it. So like, it’s just when things get hard, like, you know, people don’t persevere.
[00:28:48] And, um, you know, just through any situation, whether it is in life, whether it’s on the field, you know, in my relationship. Like, I wanna persevere. I [00:29:00] wanna persevere. Like one thing about it, you can’t, you can’t run from. You can’t. No. You know, I try to, you know, anytime I say the word adversity, I always try to say perseverance.
[00:29:10] Always, always, always. Interesting. I love that. Perseverance and adversity. Yeah. So, no, that’s a really, that’s a really good, uh, connection. Emmanuel. Emmanuel. Well, Emanuel well, yeah, God with. Hey, um, I think we’re at the end of our time. I could keep going. I mean, we’ve had hours and hours of conversation.
[00:29:32] Yeah. I just wanted to get a few of these on, on tape. Um, and I think that, you know, let me just ask you now, if your top five besides playing in the nfl, NFL’s number one. I got that. Yep. Okay. So after that, the next four ways that you will serve humanity and make money at it, what are those? Um, Coaching.
[00:29:57] Yeah. Oh yeah. [00:30:00] Coaching. Um, motivational speaker, maybe . I never thought about anything like that, but you know, in motivational speaker, you know, I’ve been told this a lot. I’m going on to number three. Okay. Being a pastor , look, I can see you little kids. I mean, to be honest, like I love, I love the Lord, I love Jesus.
[00:30:25] Like, but to be, if that’s my calling, like I’m not gonna shy away from it. Like I’d be a youth pastor, you feel me? Oh, for sure. Yeah. Keep with the kids and uh, yeah, you just communicate with them. Good. You’ve always had, you always. All right. I totally see that obligation and being in charge of the elders and, Oh, that’s, Lord, if that’s what you want from me, I got you.
[00:30:50] But, uh, you know, I, I’ve been told being a pastor, okay, there’s three or four, I guess, who’s pastor? Youth pastor, So [00:31:00] that’s three right there. So you could do all three of those together. Do you know what I’m saying? Like, you’d be, you know, Be coach, right. Probably for, you know, some of the colleges that you could go be a, a motivational speaker on your off season.
[00:31:13] And then on Sundays you’re pastor for the youth group. So there you go. What’s the last one, ? Um, I can’t wait to see all this come to fruition. Yeah. Let me see what else to impact? Just knowing like my strengths on how I can impact this, uh, maybe even being a. You know, like right. We with, um, you know, my own content and my own content and my own lane, you know, people, people, lanes in YouTube and podcasts nowadays are, you know, there’s, there’s a few lanes, but I think if I, if I chose my own language, would be talking.
[00:31:57] Peer things, which we talking about genuine [00:32:00] things, which we talking about love, trust, relationships, and, and, and things from a good place. Not, not, you know, cuz nowadays, you know, I, I watch some of these videos, but it’s, they got the whole men and women versus each other. It’s a battle. Like there’s so many division going on in this world, like the man against the woman.
[00:32:22] The Democrats versus the Republicans. There’s a race war, There’s a, a war amongst countries. Like they’re trying to turn everything and everybody against each other. So like, you know, if I, you know, made my own content to try, you know, I, I can’t say the world, but I could impact the world. But to make content so people can get someone that’s talking about genuine.
[00:32:48] They’re huge cost. That’s mentality continuity. All right, look, . If it’s I like right, then it’s, then it’s right. I’m just kidding. But, um, I mean, I agree with you. That would [00:33:00] be we need it. There’s a lot of, um, There’s not enough of the middle ground saying, Hey, um, it’s okay to get married. It’s okay to not have sex.
[00:33:13] It’s okay not to do this. Not, not to not to drink, like when you’re in college, you know, it’s like this, like rite of passages, passage and, you know, , um, it’s not really good for everybody, right? And it, it doesn’t make you a bad person or uncool or, um, there should. A lot of, uh, you know what? Another thing that I think you do really well is like, and a lot of athletes that come outta college, you guys are in great shape.
[00:33:40] And I think that it’s, it’s something that’s really taken for granted. Like, Ooh, I’m always gonna be like this, and let me tell you that’s, you know, um, as you age you have to work harder and harder at it. So if you at this age started personal training, people that are in their forties and fifties mm-hmm.
[00:33:58] I mean, I think [00:34:00] they really, really need it. And you have to, um, you could be a great influence that way. So you could be like, you could personal train. Yeah. People who want to get married, who can’t find somebody because there’s this war against women and men and the pastor and a . That is the big war right now.
[00:34:17] Like yeah, I’m, it’s major. Like there’s, there’s masculine women, you know, and it’s, and it’s about money, money, money, money, getting theirs. And then there’s, there’s men, masculine men, but their whole idea is multiple women. And, and. Right. They won’t be, there won’t be, uh, they won’t commit. Neither side will commit.
[00:34:44] That’s what it should be. Commitment. It’s a commitment podcast. You know, it’s a, it’s a lot, it’s a lot going on there, . Yep. Hey, as always, it’s so fun. I just wanted to get some of this on tape. I just love talking to you and, um, [00:35:00] All right, miss. We’ll do this again soon. Yep.
