And you say you can't make one phone call...
I just received word that my buddy's world record is official. He sent along this:
"The most consecutive boxing rounds is 120 and was achieved by David Smith (Australia) at the Holy Trinity Church Hall in Dulwich Hill, New South Wales, Australia, on 1 April 2012."
This was sent to him by the Guiness organization.
Dave is an Anglican priest who happens to be the parish priest for one of the toughest sections of Sydney. He is world renown in boxing plus persona non grata in several countries for his peace activities.
He was just in the U.S. to be in one of his parishoner's corner for a title fight. He also knows more about the Civil War than 99% of Americans.
What does all this have to do with WF members?
Dave never stops learning. He never lets an excuse stand in his way. He believes he can do it if he simply takes the first step.
Dave also is responsible to raise money for his parish. He is levied that responsibility by his church hierarchy. For example, he just got word he has to raise $10000 in 2013 for his Youth Center.
The money he raised by boxing 120 consecutive rounds went to that same capital campaign for 2012. He got out of bed and made a phone call, metaphorically speaking to raise that money.
I'm not saying box even one round. I'm saying get out of bed and take action. My God, imagine what you could do if you just do it.
Yep, you've heard that message before but you haven't heard about Father Dave unless you read some of my previous posts. I also wanted the few of you on this forum who know Dave to know the record was finally recognized.
Have a great day,
Tom
