Tiger Woods
I've been around since Tiger Woods first rise, then reign, then sudden fall, then him being practically invisible for years, and now his current rise and performance sustainability...it's been a ride for him, that's for sure.
But like today I was watching him play, and amazing how the crowds are back, and how once again he's a revenue and ratings generator for TV, magazines, radio and more.
But I remember during his fall (And I hope he does to), all the snarky magazine artless about him, and all the snarky remarks sportscasters made about him, and all the tabloid articles written about him with the worst photos of him posted on front page.
But now he's everyone's darling again simply cause he's winning again, on top of his game.
Lucky for him he had the 'wealth' that allowed him to recover in private, to heal, to completely heal, while being sheltered.
I guess my point is, is that most of us don't have that luxury, in that when we 'fall', there is no cushion, no wealth, no nothing, just cold hard 'Pay your rent or mortgage or get booted'.
'So what?', you say, well me to I guess, just making point physically we're pretty much all the same, have same energy surge and drop during the day, and all I'm saying is when wealthy, make the same mistakes as the poor, but able to recovery more quickly do to wealth.
And that's just life, not complaining, just pointing that fact out.
