Hey Brian. Just wanted to say thank you. I watched this video when I was 16 years old and then began listening to one of your nightly meditations to prepare myself for the upcoming game. I was 5”10, 170 lbs, but I could run. 6.62 60 time at 18 years old. 9th place out of 850 kids at a showcase in Arizona. But when I was 16, even having my dad as a coach, I wasn’t ready yet. He put the best 9 players on the field and that was one of the greatest things he had ever done for me. But I got a chance to the state tournament as a pinch runner. I listened to your meditation videos every night, even though I knew I was most likely not going to play. We ended up winning my high schools first ever baseball state championship 1-0. And I didn’t even play. To this day, it was still the greatest game I ever got to be a part of. My junior year after putting on some weight I became the second baseman with grant little as my short stop. Grant played 4 years at Texas Tech when they won the national championship. He’s now with the San Diego Padres organization. Our chemistry up the the middle, (fastest double play west of the Mississippi. Lol) because I wasn’t going to be outworked. I was the first one on the field and the first one off) I worked so hard every day I was able to literally mature my athleticism that I had, but no where close to Little. And because if that we were unstoppable up the middle. I my junior year I remember going 0-20 before district play not even sure I was gonna make the lineup, but I listened to you’re meditation video every night for the 2 weeks I had before our next game. Thinking about driving the ball over the 2nd baseman’s head for a double. Luckily, I was still batting 2 hole, and we ended up facing the best pitcher since my 0-20 slump. Our lead off batter strikes out on 3 pitches, and sure enough, he throws me his fastball down the middle, and I hit it literally directly over the 2nd baseman’s head for a double. I seriously couldn’t believe it myself. The lights turned on and I said wow, this shit actually works lol!! It changed my life forever. I was rewarded a D2 scholarship at the university of Texas Permian basin. No redshirt my freshman year. I struggled, but kept an open mind, discussed with the starting senior 2nd baseman who lead the conference in batting average, and I got better and better every single day. Unfortunately I broke my sternum the next season after battling for a position at 2nd base for our 1st conference game. I played with a broken sternum (including muscle relaxers and probably 8 Advil) lol and I won the starting job. Went 2 for 3 with a walk. Tied the game with one hit. Put us in the lead with the other hit. And we won that game by 1 run. And that was the last game I ever played. I’m sorry this is so long but I have one last thing. I was in so much pain but no doctor could see any sign of anything broken or torn on an mri until 7 months later they realized I broke my sternum. I became addicted to xanax at the age of 20. October of 2019 I checked myself into rehab. And we meditated two-three times every single day for a month. And then again I went, holy shit, it’s the exact same approach, mentality, and visualization that I will beat this thing, I won’t have to take xanax for the rest of my life, and I don’t have to live in chronic pain for the rest of my life. I’m still working. But every day has been better than the next, because I tell myself I’m going to have a better day today than and I did yesterday, and if I don’t, I’m gonna learn from it and have a better day next day. The past 4 months have been the happiest I’ve been in my entire life. The universe, God, whatever you want to call it, is giving me the energy that I’m giving it. So 1. Thank you for my D2 scholarship. And most importantly 2. Thank you for saving my life. Thank you Brian.
