It's All About Balance

It's been twenty-one years since the late Ron Mason brought this to my attention. The world of sports brings together many people from different backgrounds who have shared different experiences. You learn a little from every person you meet.

Sports are so much more than scoring a goal or winning the game.

Ron Mason quote - "Too much of one thing is too much"

When Michigan State University was recruiting me, the late Ron Mason, head coach, discussed something that hit home. During one of his visits to my house, he said, "Mike, you have to have balance in your life." He held up both hands and made a triangle with his fingers. "The sides represent social life, school, and hockey. You have to keep each side equal in length. If you pay too much attention to hockey, then your social life and schooling are affected. Too much of one thing is too much." Balance in everything we do is crucial. Thank you, Ron Mason.

Ron Mason's five-minute discussion has stayed with me for over twenty-one years. You never know when for a brief period, you see what's important in life. You may even resolve to change your habits or thinking to reflect your newfound perspective.
