The Dark Shape In The Water Was Headed Right For His Kid! by WJ Vincent II

The Year Was Roughly 1984
It was kind of one of those moments that you just never can forget.  There we were in the middle of paradise on the beach in Florida.  Me, my little brother, my little sister, my mom, some of our cousins and aunts and uncles.  It was a great family outing that we had traveled by Greyhound Bus to get to participate in that summer.  Dad was doing his 2 weeks for Army Air Reserve, so we had taken the trip without him, because I think it was my mom’s High School Reunion.  There are moments in our lifetime, where everything changes, in an instant forever afterward nothing will be the same…

Swimming In The Ocean
All of us were pretty good swimmers.  You kind of had to be if you were going to spend any amount of time crashing the waves on Pensacola Beach.  All of us had parents that kept a watchful eye on us, so when one of the younger kids would get too far out, we would all quickly bring them back in.  Most of us go through our daily lives often getting stuck in the same boring routines, falling in the monotony of the same day in and day out same old same old.  Many times not realizing that every single moment of our lives is an opportunity to turn it all around.  Rarely though, we will find ourselves staring down a situation where we are forced to find out who we really are.  This was one of those days for my uncle.  Most of us had headed back to the beach and were getting snacks and sun tanning.  One of the younger kids was in the water, when all of us could suddenly see the huge dark shape headed right towards her.  My uncle without any hesitation immediately sprinted to the water and dove head first into the ocean racing to get to his daughter.  I will never forget it.  He did not pause even for a millisecond, he saw the dark shape, and took off.  Willing to risk his life to save his daughter.  I was so proud of my uncle that day.  I wondered would I be so brave, would I face that type of situation with the same instant heroism?  It is easy to say we all would, but when you are staring into the jaws of death, talk becomes irrelevant, and the proverbial rubber meets the road in that moment.  Needless to say, he saved his daughter, from a giant moving patch of seaweed…but none of us knew it at the time, we all thought it was a shark.

Seizing the Moments of Our Lives
Once I was having a conversation with a gentleman who was worth hundreds of millions of dollars.  I had picked him up at the airport from his private jet.  I was so proud at the time that I had “earned” the right to get a few moments of his time as his driver.  We discussed a few casual things, and then the topic of making every moment count came up.  He said to me that life will come down to a few brief moments, and what we do in those moments will determine who we become in this life.  That we should be preparing for those moments all the time.  You never know when that dark shape is going to be headed towards your own child, or when the opportunity of a lifetime will be presented to you.  When those moments come, will you have spent a lifetime in preparation so that you are ready for the moment?  Or will you have wasted all those precious moments, and meet the biggest moments of your life woefully unprepared?  One of the best ways to prepare to be better at business and life, is to spend time hanging around people who have the lifestyle you want.  Learn from people who have done things you want to do, as often as you can.  Dr. Jay is one of those special people who could just be living on an island somewhere, but instead he is still pouring his heart and soul out to help people do better, be better, and have better in this life.  The GPS To Success training is a classic way to do exactly that, we hope you will join us, it promises to be one of the best events of the year!
