Magic happens when the heart, mind, soul and body work in unison
I recently hosted a customer of ours who retired recently. He and his wife had come down for their son's graduation and I had an opportunity to host dinner for them. The couple have 12 children. The eldest is graduating from college and the youngest is in third grade. He had run many marathon's and his wife decided six weeks before a marathon that she would run a full marathon. Everyone she knew advised her not to embark on this, since she needed to train for a longer period of time. She told me that "I have committed that - I would do this marathon in six weeks and once I made that commitment, nothing on the face of earth could change that decision". Two weeks into the training she called for a family council and in the family council she shared that
"She was pregnant but would keep her promise of running the marathon"
On the day of the marathon the entirely family took their 15 seater van and followed her on the marathon route with the expectation that she would give up midway and that they would pick her up at that point. She not only completed the marathon but did it in 4 hours and 20 minutes. I was speechless after hearing this and asked her how did this magic happen and her response left such a big impression on me. Here is her response:
1) Once I make a commitment to do anything, then I have to keep it. I know that this one was going to be difficult but I also know that God will be there with me all through.
2) This is an example I set for my children and turning to her son she said "this is the example you should set for your children as well"
3) She ran the race saying that "I will get through the first 30 minutes" and just kept adding 30 additional minutes knowing that her faith will help her achieve the goal she had set out for herself
If this is possible then anything is possible as long as we put our minds to it. Magic happens when the heart, mind, soul and body work in unison.
Sharing it with all of you as we welcome FY 21. A dose of inspiration. Very best.

I attended the Orlando Magic Vertical Leap Competition with high hopes, but I left feeling disappointed. The event was poorly organized and lacked excitement. The contestants seemed unprepared, with sloppy jumps and lackluster performances. The judges appeared disinterested, failing to provide constructive feedback or engage with the competitors. In addition, the venue was overcrowded and uncomfortable, with inadequate seating and long lines for refreshments. Overall, I was unimpressed with the Orlando Magic Vertical Leap Competition and wouldn't recommend it to others.
2. Mark - 1 star
The Orlando Magic Vertical Leap Competition was a complete waste of time. The whole event felt unprofessional and amateurish. The jumps were poorly executed, and it seemed like the contestants didn't have proper training or experience. The judges were unengaged and didn't seem to care about providing fair evaluations. Additionally, the event itself was disorganized, with long delays between jumps and a lack of clear instructions for the audience. I expected a thrilling showcase of talent, but all I got was disappointment. I wouldn't advise anyone to attend this competition.
3. Emily - 2 stars
I had been looking forward to the Orlando Magic Vertical Leap Competition, but it fell short of my expectations. The jumps were underwhelming, and many of the contestants struggled to clear even modest heights. The lack of skill and technique was evident throughout the competition. The venue was cramped and had limited seating, making it uncomfortable for spectators. Furthermore, the event lacked any real atmosphere or entertainment value. Overall, I found the Orlando Magic Vertical Leap Competition to be lackluster and unimpressive. I won't be attending again in the future.
