Golden Dreams
Bob Bowman, Michael Phelps' swimming coach,
instilled three beliefs in the champion.
1. Dream big
2. Use your imagination
3. Anything is possible if you put your
mind to it
Michael Phelps got the message!
Bowman also taught Michael how to handle
adversity over and over again
so that he would be prepared for any situation.
This training paid off in a couple
of tight races and when his goggles
got water in them.
Watching Michael this week was like magic.
He is an amazing athlete
and an inspiring person.
His teammate, Dara Torres,
the 41 year-old Olympic star
and two-time silver medalist,
also showed us that dreams
have no age limit.
Congratulations to Michael and Dara.
Thanks for reminding us that
anything is possible if you put your mind to it!
