You know how some people say, “I love her, but I’m not in love with her” or “I got love FOR you, but I’m not in love WITH YOU”  or some people say, “I love my job.”

Well, I’m in love with my job, I just don’t love it. I pour more of myself into my work because of the changes that I get an opportunity to make in people and I would encourage you to do the same.

Absolutely fall in love with the idea of helping others achieve greater levels of success.

==========
Start Coaching
==========

You may not believe that you are a coach, but YOU ARE!! You are coaching someone, some body or some team right now. And you may be coaching them for success or for failure based upon your knowledge and your love for them and the situation you are in.

For example, there are some fathers out there who are indeed coaches, BUT they aren’t around to COACH their team or their players.  If that’s the case, then they just aren’t really good coaches for several reasons:

(1) they’re not accessible
(2) they’re not setting a good example
(3) they’re not IN LOVE WITH THEIR JOB! (although they may say that they are)

Some parents are coaches, some friends are coaches and even a complete stranger, can provide you with some good coaching advice.

That’s my little piece of advice for today. I’m not going to beat you over the head today, but it’s coming real soon - believe that!!

Some of you chumps are just waiting for the holiday season to roll around so that you can pack some more FAT on your @$$ and I’m going to be RIGHT HERE to provide with the COACHING ADVICE that you need!!  >:-|

============
This is the TRUTH!

Do you know that Coach Ferguson has not eaten a standard Thanksgiving dinner in 5 years? 

That’s right. No stuffing, no fried turkey, no macaroni and cheese, and no stuffing myself like a pig - NO!!! On thanksgiving I exercise discipline and show how thankful I am for being alive by not killing myself at the dinner table.  So as we gear up for this holiday season, here’s what I want to tell you Chumps…..

Halloween and Candy………….. NO!!!
Thanksgiving and pigging out………….NO!!!
Huge Christmas Dinner…………NO!

Start prepping your mind now.

Now For The Lighter
Side of things…

I ran across this today and I thought that you Chumps might like to read it so I’m going to share it. Here you go….

FUN REFLECTIONS ON LIFE!

1. Never raise your hands to your kids.
It leaves your groin unprotected.

2. I’m not into working out. My philosophy is no pain, no pain.

3. I’m in shape. Round is a shape.

4. I’m desperately trying to figure out why Kamikaze pilots wore helmets.

5. Do you think illiterate people get the full affect of alphabet soup?

6. I’ve always wanted to be somebody, but I should have been more specific.

7. Ever notice when you blow in a dog’s face he gets mad at you, but when you take him in a car he sticks his head out the window?

8. Ever notice that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

9. You have to stay in shape. My mother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She’s 97 now and we have no idea where she is.

10. I have six locks on my door, all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three of them.

11. One out of every three Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of two of your best friends.  If they are OK, then it must be you.

12. They show you how detergent takes out bloodstains. I think if you’ve got a tee shirt with bloodstains all over it, maybe your laundry isn’t your biggest problem.

13. Ask people why they have deer heads on their walls and they tell you
it’s because they’re such beautiful animals. I think my wife is beautiful,
but I only have photographs of her on the walls.

14. A lady came up to me on the street, pointed at my suede jacket and said, “Don’t you know a cow was murdered for that jacket?” I said, “I didn’t know there were any witnesses. Now I’ll have to kill you too.”

15. Future historians will be able to study at the Jimmy Carter Library, the Gerald Ford Library, the Ronald Reagan Library, and the Bill Clinton Adult Bookstore.

“I listened to the Chump Repellant course while driving around last week and was impressed. It is the boiled down, no bull, simplest terms explanation of why and how people hold themselves back and how to improve yourself and every facet of you life and achievement.

Keep up the great work and thanks again”

Introduction
============

A couple of days ago Ole Coach Ferguson told you all how anything is possible and anything can happen. Well, last night, the number 2 ranked team in the country, University of South Florida, played against unranked Rutgers University and Rutgers steamrolled over the University of South Florida.

The score was only 30-27, but there University of South Florida DID steamroll over them because the running back from Rutgers University rushed for 30 times for 200 yards and that’s getting steamrolled in every part of the country that I’m familiar with.

===============
The Game
===============

During the game there were quite a few controversial plays, but that’s life and that’s the lesson here. There will always be an opportunity in life which presents itself for you to capitilize on, the question is, “Will you take advantage of the opportunity?”

Some of you have been threatening to go back to school….

Some of you have been threatening to open up your own business…..

Some of you have aspirations to become parents, adopt children, teach, etc.,.,

The question that I want to know is, “Why are you having these chump moments and allowing yourself to not pursue that which you really want?”  I know what it is, and you do to. Your inner chump is getting the best of you, just like it got the best of the University of South Florida in the 3rd quarter when they got outscored 14 to 3.  You have to capitilize off of the moments in your life when you are granted an opportunity.

========
Closing
========

What I really want to see is how University of South Florida responds next week. This is the most important thing. I really want to see what they do next week when they are afforded another opportunity to line up and play.

Ole Coach

P.S. If you want to discover how to eliminate and eradicate the chump moment out of your life and capitalize off the opportunities which you are give and identify when those opportunities are, then get your hands on Chump Repellent today –> http://www.chumprepellent.com

DON’T BE A CHUMP!!

Introduction

If you are a football fan, especially a college football fan, then you understand that everything is possible.

This year we have seen a small division 1-AA school beat a big time school, Michigan.

And we’ve seen the former big dogs of the NCAA University of Miami and Florida State become the door mats of college football only to be replaced by the likes of University of South Florida, who is undefeated.

To say that this parody in college football is strange is an understatement, but it is also welcomed because it sends a message that we all need to receive.

==============
You Don’t Succeed
Because You’re Supposed
To, You Succeed Because
You Want To
==============

The one thing that we can all learn is that you have the power to change the course and direction of your life. No person can impose their expectations on you. Some people may think that you can’t do some things, they may think that you don’t have what it takes to win or succeed, some people may think that you ARE a chump and will not accept the fact that you are now a CHAMP, but you know what - It doesn’t matter what they think. Because success isn’t given to those who deserve it or to those who want it, it is bestowed upon those who work for it and expect it.

=============
What Are You Expecting?
=============

If there is one thing that Ole Coach knows, it’s this - You Get What It Is That You Expect! 

In the beginning of this year’s football season Michingan played a small school by the name of Appalachian State. Appalachain State was seen as a warm up game for Michigan. But they ended up beating Michigan and pulling off the biggest upset this football season. The thing that was so huge is that Appalachain State had a expectation of victory even though the rest of the nation expected them to lose.

I know some of you are saying, “But wait, didn’t Michingan expect to win?”  And my answer to you is no. Michigan expected for Appalachain State to respect the fact that they were Michigan. They expected Appalachain State to lay down and take a beating. They underestimated the will of Appalachain State.  And they lost.

================
The Real Lesson
================

After a disappointing start, Michigan has turned there season around and they are back on track.  They had a Chump Moment and now they are back to being Champs.

The difference between being a Champ or a Chump is always up to  “U”. Make the right choice and take over your life today. Here how –>  Chump Repellent

Take Care,

Ole Coach

Introduction

I’m certainly not saying anything new or profound when I say that Obesity is one of the greatest problems in America today. Nor am I saying anything exciting when I say that most americans are overweight. We know this already. But what I really want to let you know is even though you are some people you know may be overweight, they don’t have a weight problem.

============
Check out this
email I received last
week
============

“Coach, you’ve kinda slowed down on posting on your blog, what’s up?  I really could’ve used the motivation in the last couple of weeks. My weight problem has come back and I’ve put on 3 pounds. I know it doesn’t seem like much, but when I look at the struggle that is involved to take off two pounds, I know that adding 3 is not the direction that I want to move in. I bought your Chump Repellent and I really enjoy it, but can you please help me with my weight problem.”

============
Here’s what I wanted
to say, but I didn’t
============

Look, here Chump, you don’t have a weight problem, you have a “wait” problem. Your problem is that you are always talking to “wait”ers, you can’t wait to eat, you can’t wait until your next meal, therefore you can’t wait to eat a snack and you just want all the waiting to be over therefore you’re over-wait.

=============
But, here’s what I
told him and this is
the truth….
=============

Bro. your weight is really nothing but an outward manifestation of the choices that you make.  You really don’t have a weight problem. The weight is what occurs, but it isn’t the root of the problem. Your problem is three-fold. 

1. You have a discipline problem

2. You have an educational problem

3. You have a motivational problem

Let work on #1 first….
You must exert a great deal of discipline if you want to lose some weight. The easiest thing that I can recommend for you to do is to buy a watch with a timer and set it for every 3 hours and when it goes off……EAT! That’ brings us to number 2

#2 The Educational Problem
You must know which foods are beneficial and which foods are not. You must surround yourself with healthy food choices and snacks. And even go so far to change the route or the course which you travel to work, church, home or your engagements, if you believe it going to be too much for you to drive past Wendy’s, Krispy Kreme (when the light is on) or that BBQ joint where the smoke is coming out of the smoke stack on fridays when you get off.  You have to educate yourself also on exercise selection. I have some great recommendations for you (that I’ll tell you about later). That leads us to #3,

#3 The Motivation Issue
I’m going to be honest with you. This is a REAL issue, but here’s the bottom line (and this goes for all who are reading this). There comes a time when you are going to have to do things because they just need to be done.

No leaning, no depending, no waiting for a high five, no looking for a push, you are going to have to just go out on your own and do it.  It’s great to be motivated, but motivation should just be the initial push that you need in order for you to LEARN how to do things yourself. 

You see, I designed Chump Repellent so that you could be aware, through educating yourself, of what you need to look out for and how you need to repel the behaviors, people and things which can literally thwart your personal development. This is key.  The fact of the matter is - you need to motivate your damn self. And I hate to say it like that, but it’s the truth.

Closing

I thought I’d share that email and my reply with you because I’m sure some people need to know that the weight isn’t the issue. It never was. The issue is with the choices that you make. Make better choices.

If you need some help with some medical advice just go to http://www.thehealthandwellnessqueen.com and allow Dr. Traci Ferguson to direct you in the right direction. You can also pick up the book that she co-authored, “The Backyard Workout” which has some excellent diet information and an easy-to-do bodyweight workout that was structured by her husband Rhadi Ferguson.

Take care,

Ole Coach

Introduction
===============

Recently Britney Spears just lost custody of her two children and the main reason why that happened is because Britney doesn’t know how to use scissors.

That’s right scissors.

The one thing that I constantly talk about and what I go into detail in the Chump Repellent Package is the ability to let things go and cut some things in your life out and away.

============
How To Know What
To Cut
=============

Have you ever been eating a piece of meat and decided to throw the dog who has been begging from you for the past 15 minutes a piece but instead of throwing him some meat, you throw him some fat.  If you have, then you know what the dog does. He either looks at it or chews it for a second and then spits it out.

Why?

Because it’s fat, and it provided the meat with some flavor (for a period of time) but it doesn’t have any nutritional value and you had to cut it off of your meat. Well, that’s what you must recognize about your life. Somethings that added “flavor” to your life when you were young or in a “different place” really don’t have any value to you or even to a dog and if you don’t cut away the fat, you are going to have problems.

=============
What we can learn
from Britney
=============

The first thing that we can all learn from Britney is this:

1. Money doesn’t fix problems. I think that even Britney will admit that she was happier when she was living in Louisiana with little to nothing than she is right now

2. You must know when to cut the “fat” out of your life. Literally and figuratively

3. Wearing underwear is a good thing and should be done at all times, especially when you’re getting out of a limo 

4. Use scissors for the right thing. Don’t cut off your hair and miss a drug test. Cut out the stuff that causing you to miss the drug test, but for pete’s sake, keep your hair. It will fall out on its own, believe me, there’s not need to rush it.

5. And this is so serious, we all need prayer. Maybe what Britney needs instead of a bunch of paparazzi surrounding her and taking her picture, and critics talking about her MTV performance, her hair do, her weight gain, her weight loss, etc.,. is for those same people to say a little prayer for Britney. I know I have. Ole Coach doesn’t have a daughter, but it he did, he would want that for his daughter.

That’s about it good people. All jokes aside.  I’m all for the courts doing what is in her children’s best interest, but that still doesn’t, nor is it going to remove the pain away from here to know that she’ll wake up in the morning without her kids calling out, “Mommy.”  That is a pain that you can’t “cut” away.

But, life is funny that way. It requires for you to pay a price and she’s paying.

I don’t want you to have to pay such prices. I want you to go through life with discounts, benefits, rebates and specials, but the only way for you to do that is for you to “cut” away and repel the things that will cause you to behave like a Chump.

So make sure that you get  your hands on Chump Repellent today so that you can “cut” away some of the fat out of your life tomorrow.

Take care,

Ole Coach

P.S. I want to leave you with this one last thought:

Just think about it. People who shoplift try to get something without paying. And sometimes they succeed, but the one moment that they don’t - what happens?
I’ll tell you what happens. They end up paying more than what the initial item which they were stealing cost. They pay in time and embarrassment.

And the same thing happens when you try to short cut things in business, in sports and in life. Your Inner Chump speaks to you and tells you that you are “saving”, when in actuality you are costing yourself and putting yourself in debt. The equivalent is when you’re running sprints in practice and you’re trying to “save” yourself instead of going “all out”. If you train like this, you will pay a hefty price later. You must learn how to repel these types of thoughts. Chump Repellent was developed to ensure that you behave and govern yourself like a Champion.
