On February 7, the sports world will turn its attention to one of the most viewed sporting events in the world, the Super Bowl. Over 100 million viewers will watch a football game, while many will probably be looking for the half-time show and commercials.
When I think about Tom Brady’s accomplishments and legacy, I am reminded about my own. So here is a question, what will your legacy be? Most of us will never reach the fame, magnitude, and influence of a player like Tom Brady, and that is not the goal either. Legacy is not about fame or popularity. A legacy can be measured in two ways: 1) accomplishments 2) and impact
Accomplishments are an easy and tangible way to measure legacy, but often they are forgotten within a few decades. However, impact can last a lifetime. How we influence, touch, and change others by the way we love and give of our time, talent and treasure will outlast us.
