Look at how far God has brought me since my HIV announcement 35 years ago! It is truly because of His grace and mercy that I am still here and thriving. God never gave up on me, and I kept the faith. He has truly blessed me beyond measure with His unconditional love and kindness. With His guidance, He has continued to open doors I always knew were possible. I am thankful for all of the prayers from my family, friends, and fans throughout the years, and I am a living witness that there’s nothing too hard for God.View quoted post on X
Steve Kerr says he was faking his confidence before hitting the famous shot when Michael Jordan passed him the ball for the championship in the 1997 NBA Finals
“I was faking it. I’m not kidding. I was so nervous. But I was far enough along in my career where I had learned the value of just letting it fly.”
“You can’t overthink anything. You can’t think about the repercussions. And Phil Jackson had been a great mentor for me, teaching our whole team the value of mindfulness and meditation and breathing. He used to take timeouts in crucial situations and just literally lead us in a breathing session.”
“He would just say, ‘Everybody, just deep breath.’ And we’d all take a deep breath. And no other coach was doing that. So I was definitely pretending to be more calm than I was.”
“But I do think that it is part of my personality, something I learned from my dad, to listen and to take everything in and to at least appear calm. And approach things in a relatively calm manner. And it wasn’t an easy thing for me to do because I also have a competitive rage inside me that for many years I had to fight, because I beat myself up inside. My inner voice was not that kind to me.”
“So I feel like it’s been a lifetime of trying to sort through all this stuff.”View quoted post on X
