A fellow baseball dad once joked with me saying that being an Aussie baseball player hopeful, travelling to the USA, wanting to be taken seriously by scouts is like an American athlete, who plays cricket and decides to come to Australia and wants to be taken seriously about his cricketing career. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Odds are slim, aren\u2019t they? As much as hope drives us all forward, it can also be a curse as well. But still, hope always drives some to glory who are willing to run through walls.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Trent Oeltjen<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I talk often with one particular Australian who played in the MLB, Trent Oeltjen, who was signed with the Minnesota Twins, and then went on to play about seven years in the minor leagues before being called up to play in the show with the LA Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks. I asked Trent why he made it and other fellow Australians, who were as talented, if not more talented than him, didn\u2019t make it past College or Rookie League. He said simply, <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8216;I was willing to run through walls&nbsp;to make it.\u2019 He went on further to say, \u2018I knew what I wanted. I had my vision, and I was willing to do the hard grind daily.\u2019<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h5><strong>The Ability to \u2018Run Through Walls\u2019<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019ve only really seen this on the X-Men movies. Do you have to be super human with an \u2018X\u2019 in front of your gene pool to be able to do this? Sometimes it seems so. But you don\u2019t have to be an X-Man to run through walls. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In my crazy thinking, I believe everyone is born with the gift to run through walls (figuratively speaking, of course). <strong>When we are born, there are no walls.<\/strong> Yes, there could be some positive or negative sub-conscious energy developed from being in the womb, but I\u2019m not going to get into the \u2018nature versus nurture\u2019 debate. Yet, I do believe our environment dramatically influences us and we either adapt to or challenge what our environment puts before us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I have never heard a parent say to a baby: quit trying to walk, you\u2019re never going to get up, you may as well crawl all your life. I have never seen a baby give up trying to walk, despite repeated falling over countless number of times. No parent puts that wall up; no baby is familiar with the failure to walk through the wall. The baby keeps trying and falling until she or he walks. And then reality comes to that child as she or he grows up and the parent\u2019s negative and positive influences start seeping into that child\u2019s thinking. Family, school and society have their say. <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beliefs are instilled and walls are built and believed. This is the way it is and this is the way it will always be.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The child has the gift to get up and walk despite constant failure. There is no imaginary wall. It is instinctive to get up and walk.<strong> It is instinctive for us all to hope, want, desire, dream, aspire, get better, be better, leave our mark on the earth in some way \u2013 if only through our offspring<\/strong>. At least that way, we can say, I have left the earth in a better place because I have helped my children improve on what I have been. But society builds walls for our children, whether through us or through the physical environment we live in.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>The Reality<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sidney Poitier, in his book \u2018The Measure of a Man\u2019, wrote about his friend, Louise, back in the early 1960s when he was mixing with some black rights activists. She said to him: <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018How we see ourselves, how we see each other, should be determined by us and not by people who generally don\u2019t like us\u2026we are going to decide for ourselves what we are and what we are not. Create our own image of ourselves. And nurture it and feel it till it can stand on its own.\u2019 <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So our children, whether they are athletes or not, whether they are talented at their sport or not, have their own walls they must run through. Children generally figure out where they stand in the pecking order when comparing themselves with other children \u2013 especially when it comes to sports. They start building the wall of doubt from an age when they can foresee who is a better athlete. The invisible wall gets built, brick by brick, and at some point they think, but rarely will say, this wall is too high to get over or this wall is too hard to fight through. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of us at some point have come to a wall and deep down said: this wall is too high, this wall is too hard. Lord forbid we would ever tell anyone this dark secret. <em>These walls are mostly imaginary<\/em>. These walls can be run through. But something we believed from others or ourselves has convinced us this imaginary wall is too hard and too high. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I go back to what my friend, Trent said: \u2018I was willing to run through walls.\u2019 In the \u2018Nature Versus Nurture\u2019 debate, some will say it is a gift we are born with and others will argue it is a gift that is developed. The wall&nbsp;says, <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI don\u2019t care who you are. I don\u2019t take any sides, whether you imagine me or not. I\u2019m here for you to define who you are. I\u2019m here for you to run through. I am the wall. Let\u2019s see who is going to win.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CoachUp is the safest and easiest way to find a coach for personalized training.
