This Program is Bigger than a Game!

We honored “The Coolest, Toughest” Librarian of the USA, Mrs. Lori Stimpson Arteaga and our beloved Mamie G. Griffin Elementary School, with an NFL Alumni Gameball for being the MVP for the work she and the staff have created.
They started the J. W. Ray Library presents “The Village Elders Mentoring Program”, with the Alumnus of Griffin coming back to talk and mentor the young men at the school, in the North Tyler neighborhood.
We have a list of Griffin Alumni Men that we will be calling on to come back and serve these young men and assist them along the way. Stay tuned for the next mentoring class coming up in the very near future!

This Elementary school with the Principal, staff and teachers that got us started on our educational journey, was and still is a Pillar in our community and we are proud to say that we are Griffin Bulldogs!

Put your Game-face on, as you can see, Mrs. Arteaga stays ready so that she don’t have to get ready! She’s showing off with the football and ready to see all of you in the library reading books.
Make it HAPPEN!!!

Phenomenal Women in the Business of Sports!

What a powerful event to attend!

These women are working and making things happen in a powerful way in top positions in sports. Then you top it off with having a living legend in the building.
Dr. Opal Lee affectionately known as the “Grandmother of Juneteenth”.
Opal Lee is an American retired teacher, counselor, and activist in the movement to make Juneteenth a federally-recognized holiday. On June 17, 2021, President Joe Biden signed Senate Bill S. 475, making Juneteenth the eleventh federal holiday.
Also great to see the BSPNTX Board members and my BBB Brother, Larry Lundy get blessed with some BSPNTX custom designer shoes from one of the honorees, Ms. Akellia Stewart CEO of Customs by AK.
We can Train, Play, Coach, Promote, Manage and Own!!!

Wow is all I can say when it comes to Trinity Heights Talented & Gifted school here in Dallas. All of the students, admin staff and teachers were amazing and definitely welcomed me with open arms.
We enjoyed storytelling, life lessons, locker and board room talk, chanting, dancing and singing and to top it off, we had a blast with our “Knock down that Wall” challenge!
I presented a NFL Alumni Gameball to the 2022-23 DISD Magnet School Principal of the year, Dr. Marquetta Masters and the school, for a job well done and for having me as their presenter for the Month of March Achievement Day.
A Big Thanks to Brentt Shropshire (My BBB Brother) of Shire Financial Group for the connect, as well as our NFL Alumni DFW President Liffort Hobley, for blessing me with the gifts to give!
Also a Big Shout out to Patrice Garmon for introducing me to this school several years ago and I felt at home walking the halls and being in the auditorium.
To God be the glory!

Brief Book Review on Can’t Hurt Me https://iamactionjackson.com/cant-hurt-me/ https://iamactionjackson.com/cant-hurt-me/#respond Wed, 01 Feb 2023 17:08:59 +0000 https://iamactionjackson.com/?p=6941 Can’t Hurt Me
Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins

I like to start the new year with books, articles and videos on mindset and making sure I’m starting the year off as mentally strong as I can be.

This book Can’t Hurt Me – Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins is one for the ages considering that it is being written by a retired Navy SEAL and the only member of the U.S. Armed Forces ever to complete SEAL training, U.S. Army Ranger School, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller training.

From the very first page here’s the Warning Order…
Time Zone: 24/7
Task organization: Solo mission

  1. Situation: You are in danger of living a life so comfortable and soft that you will die without ever realizing your true potential.
  2. Mission: To unshackle your mind. Ditch the victim’s mentality forever. Own all aspects of your life completely. Build an unbreakable foundation. 
  3. Execution:
    A.
    Read this cover to cover. Study the techniques within, accept all ten challenges. Repeat. Repetition will callous your mind.
    B.
    If you do your job to the best of your ability, this will hurt. This Mission is not about making yourself feel better. This Mission is about being better and having a greater impact on the world.
    C.
    Don’t stop when you are tired. Stop when you are done.
  4. Classified: This is the origin story of a hero. This hero is you! 

By the command of: David Goggins

Rank and service: Chief, US Navy Seals, Retired 

Here are a few take-aways that I needed to remind myself on and it will serve me well throughout the days.

Armored mind – to develop an armored mind, a mindset so calloused and hard that it becomes bulletproof. You need to go to the source of ask of your fears and insecurities.

Most of the time we don’t rise to the level of our expectations we fall to the level of our training. 

The sole reason I work out like I do isn’t to prepare for and win ultra races. It’s to prepare my mind for life itself. Life will always be the most grueling endurance sport and when you train hard, get uncomfortable and callous your mind, you will become a more versatile competitor, trained to find a way forward no matter what. 

Your entitled mind is dead weight. Cut it loose. Don’t focus on what you think you deserve. Take aim on what you are willing to earn!

When you get a moment to add another book to your collection and strengthen your mindset for bigger challenges and higher levels, Can’t Hurt Me is the book for you.

Make it HAPPEN!!!

Griffin Bulldogs for Life! https://iamactionjackson.com/griffin-bulldogs/ https://iamactionjackson.com/griffin-bulldogs/#respond Thu, 19 Jan 2023 11:45:16 +0000 https://iamactionjackson.com/?p=6924

Griffin Bulldogs for Life!
The Village Elders Coming Back to Share!

Dad and I went to school today and as a Proud Griffin Elementary School Alumni, I must say that God showed up and showed out, in that J. L. Ray library this afternoon.
The man in this portrait on the wall, James Ray (RIP), was the Principal of this school back in the day. His strong presence and the impact he made on all of us is still evident to this day.
To see the vision, the work put in and the results from it with Head Librarian Lori Stimpson Arteaga (Griffin Alum Class of 1980), Dr. Henry, the Administrators, teachers and most importantly, the young men of the 5th grade, was and is definitely a highlight among highlights of my life.
I could go on and on and on and on and on about all of the good that came from this event today, but you still may not get the true picture.

From what was shared today, my prayer is that deep in these young men hearts, they will bury that seed of hope, that seed of belief in themselves and that seed of faith in something bigger than all of us, to grow into something positive to make an invaluable impact with their families, their communities and in the world we live in.

Teamwork makes the Dream Work! Griffin Bulldogs Hands Up… One Clap! 
Leaders are Readers!
Be present – Be where your feet are!
Dream Big Think Better!
Be Good Looking – See the positive in every situation
What’s your name? First AND Last name
Good strong handshake!
Eye contact!
Today was a good day at Mamie Griffin Elementary and thank you again Lori for pushing this movement and pushing me to make this happen.
The only thing I didn’t get a chance to do was walk home from school… doggone it!
Great times!

Moving on Up!
Christopher Berry is on the Move!

I’m excited, inspired, proud and grateful, to see a young man, Christopher Berry, making things happen on a higher level.
He is in the creative graphic design space and has went from interning, to producing the work and now is headed into management to lead the way.
Ooh wee God is good!
I love seeing a great downtown skyline full of tall buildings and different art structures. To see him in his new office some 50+ stories up, overlooking the city was and is a thing of beauty.
A mentor/protégé friendship that started in church over 25+ years ago, has matured to more of a connection on career, family and leadership type of discussions. He calls me Uncle, Big Brother, Brother Patrick and whenever I can share a few ideas and nuggets, I’m a phone call away.
I’m beyond proud of the man he is and growing more into and after investing time with him today, I want to present Mr. Christopher Berry to you.
Keep this young man in your prayers for his continued growth and success in his career goals and the ladder the he is climbing. With God first and your family close, the sky is not even the limit!
Each One Teach One!

Brief Book Review for that Champion Mindset! https://iamactionjackson.com/relentless-book-review/ https://iamactionjackson.com/relentless-book-review/#respond Wed, 28 Dec 2022 19:15:48 +0000 https://iamactionjackson.com/?p=6912 Brief Book Review for that Champion Mindset!

 

I finally finished this book, Relentless – From Good to Great to Unstoppable By Tim S. Grover and when I tell you it will tighten up your mindset, get your hands on this book and dedicate some time reading it.

Tim is a former trainer to many of the most intense athletes and champions, such as Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade, and he shares the tea leaves on what makes these athletes relentless and unstoppable until the end result is complete.

The word Relentless is used in sports to describe the most intense competitors and achievers imaginable, those who stop at nothing to get to the end result. In sports, being relentless is measurable by victories and trophies and championships and rings.

In real life, being relentless is a state of mind that can give you the strength to achieve, to survive, to overcome, to be strong when others are not. It means craving the end result so intensely that the work becomes irrelevant. Not just in sports, but in everything you do.
The ability to be relentless is in all of us.

Tim devised a three-tiered system that categorizes different types of competitors: Coolers, Closers and Cleaners. Good, Great and Unstoppable. You can apply these standards to any group of individuals; just look around your team, your office, your friends and family. If you want to be unstoppable (Cleaner), you’ve got to make the commitment.

A Simple Breakdown

A Cooler is careful; he waits to be told what to do, watches to see what everyone else is doing and then follows the leader. He’s the setup guy, keeping things cool until the Closer or Cleaner can take over.

A Closer can handle a lot of pressure; he’ll get the job done if you put him in the right situation and tell him exactly what you need him to do. He’ll study all sorts of scenarios so he can anticipate what might happen, but he’s uncomfortable when faced with something unexpected.

A Cleaner is rarely understood and he likes it that way. He is not intimidated by pressure, he thrives on it. He may not love the work but he’s addicted to the results. He keeps pushing himself harder when everyone else has had enough.

Here are a few examples:

Coolers worry about the competition and how they measure up.
Closers study the competition and plan their attack based on the opponent.
Cleaners make the competition study them; they don’t care whom they’re facing, they know they can handle anyone.

Coolers won’t offer to take on a role they’re not comfortable with.
Closers will take the role if you ask them and they’ll do it well, if they have enough time to prepare for and study the situation.
Cleaners don’t wait to be asked, they just do it.

Coolers think they want the spotlight, but when they get it, they usually handle it badly.
Closers stand in front because they need to show who’s in charge.
Cleaners don’t have to show who’s in charge… Everyone already knows!

Ok, I’ve written enough to get your attention and now hopefully you head over to Amazon and grab this book to kick off the new year.
Make it HAPPEN!!!

I thank God first and the doctors for a great report on my health and I appreciate my network for the many prayers for me during my colonoscopy procedure.

Let’s continue to pray for a healing for those persons that are battling and overcoming their health issues as well.


Oh yeah, I’m a sucker for those animal cookies however since I’m a Lion, it’s hard for me to eat the Lions cookies in the pack 😆😆

Memos from the Chairman – Great Read for 2022 https://iamactionjackson.com/memos-from-the-chairman-great-read-for-2022/ https://iamactionjackson.com/memos-from-the-chairman-great-read-for-2022/#respond Sun, 30 Jan 2022 17:24:32 +0000 https://iamactionjackson.com/?p=6883 Memos from the Chairman 
by Alan C. Greenberg with a Foreword by Warren Buffett

This book is a collection of executive and investment advice that Bear Stearns Chairman of the Board, Alan C, “Ace” Greeberg used in email memos to rally the troops to success. The content from the email memos cover a timespan from 1978 – 1995.

Mr. Greenberg uses 2 characters, Haimchinkel Malintz Anaynikal and Itzhak Nanook Pumpernickanaylian in the book to act as advisors to him personally, to emphasize his business lessons and office culture behavior to company’s personnel.

From advising the executives on when to get into a certain business line, to communicating to business units on sharing fax machines instead of ordering more and to reuse paper clips, file folders and other office supplies to make the employees more conscious of opportunities and expenses.

The Memos from a Chairman are both witty and funny to say the least and coming from a Chairman or CEO level, will definitely make you think about business from a different perspective. The one takeaway that is repeated several times in the memos, are from the words of his “famous philosopher”, Haimchinkel Malintz Anaynikal is, “thou will do well in commerce as long as thou does not believe in thine own odor is perfume.” 

Thanks Timothy Cavitt for the book recommendation and I can see why it was recommended to you and why you enjoyed the read.
Great Reading!
