Every Day A Friday: How To Be Happier 7 Days A Week - Plot & Excerpts
I love the classic and true story of a boy whose dream was to play professional baseball. He was extremely gifted. All through junior high and high school he was by far the most talented player in his league. Professional scouts were regularly at his games. Then one day he had a farming accident. He lost the whole forefinger and most of the middle finger on his throwing hand. It looked like his baseball days were over. But this young man had a “no-excuses” mentality. He learned to throw the ball without those two fingers, even though they are usually the main fingers used to throw a baseball. He had always been a third baseman, but one afternoon during practice the coach was standing behind this young man and noticed some interesting movement on the ball when he threw from third to first. The coach asked him to try pitching. Turns out that was a very good idea. Mordecai “Three Finger” Brown went on to become one of the greatest pitchers in the early history of Major League Baseball.
