Why you should Always Believe...




I often like to pull quotes from celebrities or individuals that were leaders in their field of expertise, just so happens that today I had a great conversation about Phil Jackson.  I always said that if Phil Jackson ran for president, he could undoubtedly get my vote…Here’s why… 


"I think the most important thing about coaching is that you have to have a sense of confidence about what you're doing. You have to be a salesman and you have to get your players, particularly your leaders, to believe in what you're trying to accomplish on the basketball floor."

Welcome to the Jumpers' Post

While in London rehearsing for Rihanna’s Loud Tour, I couldn't help but notice this skyscraper with three big fans on it, which I later discovered was Strata Tower.  It is the sole reason for this Blog.  I promised myself at that moment, that I wasn't going to stop until I had one just like it…
