A Life Changing Experience...
I choose to tell you this story because I can trace most of my success back to this story. This story is of an experience that changed my life forever.
In April of 2012 on a ride home after an exhausting wet day of work, I wrecked and totaled my car. I was driving on a winding country road, that was as slick as a slipping slide. I was traveling home and then at a bend in the road my right rear tire went off the road and into the gravel shoulder of the road. I then over corrected and "fish-tailed" (a zig zag motion) 75-100' down the road. I could not regain control of my car and hit a ditch which flung me ten feet in the air, and caused my car to endure 3 full flips or I guess you could call it 3 barrel rolls. I remember during that moment thinking, "Lord, not another flip." This whole thing happened all so fast, and I am glad that this happened to me. All of my coworkers from Bennett's Creek Wholesale Nursery saw this in action and stopped to make sure I was okay.
I am even more glad that I walked away from the car unharmed and fully conscious. I get told all the time that I could have died that day. This day was a wake up call for me. It assured me that I am truly blessed, and have a PURPOSE, a reason to live. I acknowledge this everyday and do everything I can to strive towards excellence, because I am in search of this reason. I want to have the biggest impact possible on the world in which I live, and this was an incident that helped steer me in the right direction towards this impact.
