My inspiration for the month of September comes from
professional golfer Jason Day. Jason is a professional golfer who was
always coming second in his tournaments, and although he has gone through much
adversity in his life he never lost sight of his goals.
Golfer Jason Day |
At an early age Jason lost his father who noticed his sons raw golfing talent
at the tender age of 4 years. His mother went on to sell the family home to
help educate Jason and pay for his golf lessons. Jason has experienced
personal tragedies, suffered from vertigo and even had to overcome
depression. Despite all this, one thing he always had was the
unconditional love and support of his wife and family. Last but not least
he had the support and friendship of his faithful caddie who walked with him
through the lean years and always encouraged him to greatness.
Jason recently hit the big time by winning the coveted PGA tournament and the first person he hugged when he won was his caddie who had always been by his side and had become much like a father figure to him. Jason is a life lesson 1 (the achiever) and he is currently in a 1 cycle, so it's most definitely his time to win. This experience touched me deeply and proves that you can achieve anything you put your mind to and especially with the love and support of others. To me this is a true spiritual journey which we all can learn from. Thank you for your inspiration Jason and I have no doubt we will hear more of this wonderful man in the future!
