👊 Who's inspired you in your journey?

Today I wrote about a man who had a huge impact on me - Mr. Story.

He wasn't my family. But he was such a big part of my life that I feel like he was.

Mr. Story was a psychology teacher, made you take your hats off in class, a strength coach when I met him, and coached high school football for many years.

If it wouldn't have been for him, I wouldn't be training today. I may not have even started martial arts.

He shaped everything - how I train, how I think, who I became as a martial artist and a coach.

My Foundation Challenge is daily writing so I can give back. This Substack is part of that commitment.

Today's action step:

Share a pic of someone who's had a big influence on your life.

Could be family.

Could be a coach.

A teacher.

A mentor.

A training partner.

Someone who's still here or someone you lost.

Doesn't matter if they're famous or if nobody knows them but you.

Drop the pic + one sentence about what they taught you.

If you want the full story about Mr. Story, here's today's Substack: https://open.substack.com/pub/tkdjreed/p/how-i-train?r=1xf896&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

Let's see who's shaped this community. 💪
