Phil Mickelson

Phil Mickelson just won the PGA Championship this past weekend. I don’t especially follow golf, but I do know of a couple of the big names.

As Phil approached the 18th, and final hole, the fans swarmed the golf course and cheered and walked with him. Security seemed to completely lose control of the crowd as they surged in support of this guy.

Mickelson won this championship at age 50, becoming the oldest player to win a major tournament in history.

He hasn’t won a major tournament in forever, but the love that these fans showed him was palpable.

This is what happens when you just show up day after day, month after month, and year after year. You don’t have to always win, you don’t have to create the most incredible artwork, you don’t have to have the best arguments, most viral moments, or most beautiful looks.

You have to show up and work hard. That’s it. You do that and you will make an incredible impact for yourself and on others.
