| Scientists try to predict earthquakes, track asteroids in their orbits, catalogue and propose plans to protect the earth from complete annihilation.
The local meteorologist tries to tell us how cold or hot and wet or dry we can be, they seem to lie and dream up conditions of weather for us to worry about and scare us to be careful getting around.
Today everyone is correct because like the tide that doesn't wait, at midnight the new leg of the journey begins.
It's best to leave the baggage of 2025 behind, look ahead, apply all that is acquired and gear yourself for advanced challenges that could keep surprises to a minimum, and why not! you've grown a year. The world we are used to, we have to get used to, the idea that it ceases to exist. While the geological, scientific, and physical principles remain the same, it is mostly we the occupants of the planet that have changed, as nations, as a city, as a town, as families and mostly as individuals.
I feel that all it takes is the individual to start a positive ripple, renewing hope and strengthening the bonds of care, to build an ever expanding ,loving and happy world, up through families to nations, neighbouring nations and beyond. Protecting the planet and us from extreme weather means nothing without care for humanity.
2026 with all it's challenges can be wonderful and progressive, with lasting peace and love, through focus on the good as our lead.
Join me as we forward bravely against all standing in the path of peace and progress.
All the best to you and your family
Let's make 2026 Yours, mine, ours, theirs and everyones.

| To achieve a good hit on a ball, consider the following key components,
1. **Stance**: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and knees slightly bent for optimal stability and balance.
2. **Weight Distribution**: Shift your weight onto your back leg to harness explosive power that can take your swing to the next level.
3. **Grip**: Maintain a relaxed grip on the bat, allowing for fluid wrist action that enhances control and precision.
4. **Hip Rotation**: Engage your hips with explosive power to create a whip-like effect, generating momentum that drives the ball.
5. **Follow-Through**: Finish your swing with a complete rotation, ensuring that every ounce of energy is transferred to the bat for maximum impact.
By mastering these key mechanics, you will elevate your swing and significantly improve your performance on the field. Embrace these principles, and watch your game soar!
To unlock your full potential in this sport, focus on these essential components of a powerful swing to barrel the ball.

| You will strike out. You will make errors.You will pitch bad.
The separator isn’t talent - it’s response.
The way you handle failure…
The way you reset…
The way you compete on the next pitch…
That’s the difference between winners and losers.

| We need more teamates that are bold and understand their position of influence.
-You’re a role model (like it or not)
-Hold everyone accountable to a higher standard (they will greatly appreciate it at some point)
-Stand firm with unique team rules and expectations and be consistent following through
-Be truthful and honest
You’re definitely going to influence and impact your players.
The question is:
Is your impact and influence going to be good or bad? It’s a choice, choose wisely!
