Triumph of Will

Posted by Barb on August 17th, 2009

I thought this video captured someone who is a great leader along with just being incredibly inspirational. It is a story of Don Meyers and his acceptance speech on winning the Jimmy V award at the 2009 ESPY awards. The video is ~10 minutes long, so grab a cup of coffee and be prepared to be touched by his message.
