"I've always been a guy that goes against everything people say"
- Edwin Jackson
Throughout an impressively long career spanning over 14 teams—a record in Major League Baseball—Edwin Jackson has embodied the spirit of resilience and celebrating small wins.
Each new team represented a fresh start, an opportunity to contribute, and a small win in its own right. Despite the constant changes, Jackson's career was marked by personal milestones, like throwing a no-hitter in 2010 and being a part of the 2011 World Series-winning St. Louis Cardinals team.
Jackson's journey is a reminder that in baseball, as in life, progress is often made one base at a time. It's about valuing each step, each minor victory, and each lesson learned along the way.
Celebrating these small wins helps build the momentum and confidence needed to keep moving forward, even when the end goal seems far off.
Today, let's embrace the idea of small wins as stepping stones to larger achievements.
Like Jackson, we can navigate the challenges and changes life throws our way, always looking for the value in every experience.
