I pay special attention to the way people think and behave. It gives me a “real life” perspective and an insight on new ways to keep getting better. In observing the Saints on their road to a championship, there are 3 quick tips that I will always remember about this team.
Leadership – It begins with head coach Sean Payton. He is a great decision maker and understands how to rally people around a cause.
Commitment – When you think of the Saints, you think of a team who is committed to something greater than any one individual on the team. It was never just about winning the Super Bowl. It was about a history of struggle and relentless perseverance.
Gratitude – At the end of the game, it was special to see Drew Brees holding his baby boy. As Drew looked around the stadium and back at his son, he had tears in his eyes. He was a grateful champion.

Doyle,

Thank you, Doyle! Your post reaffirms that each and every day we learn lessons of humility and greatness through seemingly unrelated events. Take the time to look deeper – you just may find that “golden nugget” that inspires you both personally and professionally. Be great!
Great post Doyle!
Let me add one more thing that I feel is of great value. Many of the members of the New Orleans Saints were castoffs from other teams that did not want them – including Drew Brees. I believe that added to their “burning desire” to succeed on a stage so few ever reach.
