My sole mission is to help humans wage war against their status quo.I am a word trafficker. I spend my days crafting keynotes and writing stories.During my third year at Harvard Law School, I realized I wanted to become a football coach so I wrote a letter to every team in the NFL. My direct mail campaign to 32 NFL teams yielded a 99.0325% failure rate. 31 teams rejected me. I was $250,000 in debt.No job offer.Two months before graduation.And I finally got the call.That plunge into the Deep End led to seven years coaching in the NFL and college.Today, I serve as founding director of the Center for Sports Leadership & Innovation (CSLi) at the University of Texas. CSLI is the first university-based institute dedicated to developing leadership and character curricula for high school and collegiate athletes. I also teach one of UT's most popular courses - Gameplan for Winning at Life.
