JOHN CHANEY

I had a conversation with a friend one day; and we were talking about family and life; and I asked him: “how do you see your kids’ future?”

And he said to me: “my grandfather walked 10 miles to work every day; my father walked 5; I’m driving a Cadillac; my son is in a Mercedes; my grandson will be in a Ferrari. But,” he said, “my great-grandson will be walking again.” So I asked him: “why is that?”

And he said to me: “tough times create strong men; strong men create easy times; easy times create weak men; weak men create tough times. Many will not understand, but you have to raise warriors.”

Aaron McKie, a legendary American basketball player and later coach, remembering his own coach, and best known college basketball coach at Temple University, John Chaney. His words explain generational cycles, and the fact that we find ourselves into them, but can also position ourselves into them.
