Attached is a video segment that was shown on College Football Live on ESPN. Of course I am a little biased being a Cyclone fan, but that aside, Jake Knott's passion, appreciation of all, and positive outlook are quality characteristics we all should strive for. Jake Knott, an outstanding linebacker for Iowa State, faced a season ending injury, but played through the pain before his surgery the following Monday, because of his love for his teammates and passion of the game. One of my early posts dealt with finding your passion. The passion that Jake shows in this clip is exactly what I was talking about! Jake's outlook on the whole situation is, also, a huge point to take away from this video. He could be angry, because he can't finish his senior year on the field. This is not the case though. He just keeps saying how lucky he is to be a part of what he was. You show this passion in your life and outlook on even the toughest situations you are well on your way Striving4Excellence.
