Developing the Heart of an Iron Man, with Hall of Fame and Superbowl Champion NFL Linebacker, Derrick Brooks, Ep. 113

Joining us this week on the Built Different Podcast is one of the hardest workers, heaviest hitters, and most humble individuals the NFL has ever seen. Our guest is Hall of Fame Linebacker, Superbowl Champion, and One of the Greatest Defensive Players in NFL history, Derrick Brooks. Not only was Derrick a 2-time All-American and National Champion at Florida State University, but he also went on to have one of the most decorated NFL careers including a Superbowl ring, a Defensive Player of the  Year Award, Walter Payton Man of the Year Award, competing in 11 Pro Bowls, and being selected as a 6-time All Pro. However, even after all of those accolades, one of his greatest achievements is that during his 14-year NFL career, he NEVER missed a game! Derrick understands perseverance and persistence. He understands what it means to choose the right perspective and attitude in order to withstand and overcome adversity. As one of my favorite quotes says, “You don’t have to win all your fights, but you must fight all your fights.” My friends, the truth is, you are never out of the fight! After listening to today’s fun and powerful episode with Derrick, our prayer is that you would be encouraged to stay the course, to keep on keeping on, and to choose the right attitude no matter the circumstance you may find yourself in. You have what it takes… Sometimes you just have to BELIEVE!
