a number of years ago my daughter was
Lowell a new a Yankee fan and I trying
to be a good father took it to a
baseball game as a kid I had been very
active in sports but I wasn't big on
spectator sports and it had been a very
long time since I'd been to a major
league baseball game from the time I got
there and the game began I found a very
interesting experience basically nothing
was going on between pitch and the pitch
and from there was almost nothing
happening and by the top of the first
inning I was bored out of my mind
happened to be that my daughter brought
with her a order by a biography of Derek
Jeter and I got a chance to read it and
I found in that biography something
fascinating Derek Jeter shows up to the
game four hours before the game every
single game he showers suits up begins
limbering begins stretching beans
throwing the ball by the time that first
pitch is thrown out he's four hours into
the game not just warmed up and not just
ready primed and ready and I think
that's an app parable for us how much
time do we take before Dominic to
prepare to think to contemplate if we
come in five minutes late and it's not
just that we're late we're way way
behind the game if people say Dominic
doesn't work it's boring my mind floats
away spend a few minutes preparing spend
a few minutes thinking thinking about
the greatness of our creator and think
about what Dominic is and if you spend
even a few minutes before the game
preparing you'll find your Dominic is a
very different experience
