Day 362
Fresh Start_362: Inspirations
My next thank you is to
my influences. There has been many but there are few specifically made this
past year happen. So, I’d like to thank a few people… I’d like to thank Bill
Simmons, my 11th grade English teacher Mr. Schofield, and the Head
of the Communications at Cobleskill Erik Hage. Simmons is one of my biggest
inspirations out there and listening to his podcast all last year once he was
let go ESPN he gave me the inspiration to say “hey I can do this too.”
Along the road you have
to have people to believe in you and well Mr. Schofield was the first one for. I
wrote a series of papers for him in high school and he sat me down and told me I
actually had something in my writing. I didn’t realize it until a year later
but thank you for believing in me.
The same thing can be said
for Mr. Erik Hage. He was once a journalist himself in the Boston area (I think
I have something for Boston sports guys I don’t know) but he also has written a
couple of books. Like Mr. Schofield, he sat me down in his office and told me
while I was taking his journalism class “you are one of the only ones that can
actually do this for living.” I am still speechless about that quote from an
actual journalist who has two books written and published. Just thank you,
thank you, thank you it means the world to me. I can never repay you too!
