housing projects (住房) with six brothers, three sisters, a varying assortment (各式各样东西的混合) of foster kids (养子), my father, and a
wonderful mother, Scarlette Hunley. We had little money and few worldly goods,
but plenty of love and attention. I was 36 and energetic. I
understood that no matter how poor a person was, he could still 37 a
dream.
My dream was 38 . By
the time I was sixteen, I could crush a baseball, and hit anything that moved
on the baseball field. I was also 39 : My high school coach
Jarvis, who not only believed in me, but taught me how to believe in myself. He
40 me the difference between having a dream and showing
conviction (信念).
One particular incident with Coach Jarvis changed my life forever.
It was the summer between my
junior and senior years, and a friend 41 me for a summer
job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket—cash for dates with girls, certainly, money
for a new bike and new clothes, and the 42 of savings for a
house for my mother. The prospect of a summer job was attractive and
interesting, and I wanted to jump at the opportunity. Then I realized I would
have to 43 summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and
that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing.
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was 44
as I expected him to be. “You have your whole life to work,” he said. “Your 45
days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them.”
I stood before him with my head
hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why my dream of
buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his 46
to me.
“How much are you going to make
at this job, son?” He demanded.
“3.5 dollars an hour.” I replied.
“Well,” he asked, “Is $3.5 an
hour the price of a dream?”
That question, the plainness of
it, laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and
having a goal. I delicated myself to sports that summer and with the year I was
hired by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play baseball, and was 47 a
$20,000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1998 for $1.7 million,
and bought my mother the house of my dreams.
