YouDay: Lessons on our future learned from Paul Robeson

Coach LaMonte says it is your obligation not to be controlled by the things you can control.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Paul Robeson once said, "We must realize that our future lies chiefly in our own hands." The future lives within you and you are the one who controls it. Within us, the past, present and future all reside. When the three collide it creates experience, where we learn, apply, and prepare.

You are the controller of your fate. You hold the future, so what will your story say? Pull the future from within and step into it. It is your obligation not to be controlled by the things you can control. And what you control is the future you want.
