That's Great Advice. Matthew Pearlman

СКАЧАТЬ Connie said. “It’s the same thing in the classroom. If I could go through track practice every day and go through the tortures I go through in workouts, I could sit down and open up a book. It just reinforced my desire.”

      Later on, in college at Penn State University, Connie worked with kids with special needs through the Life Link program. She was a mentor to the kids, bringing them to the college campus, to sports events, and helping them with their education and life plans. Connie achieved a degree in psychology and then got an MBA in marketing.

      Connie Moore gave me her advice about perseverance:

      “Perseverance has been the story of my life. Every day my goal is to be better than I was the day before. Whether it is to be a better person, a better athlete, or a better friend, it is a daily perseverance. I grew up in inner city Chicago where drugs and violence ran rampant. Simply getting out of the neighborhood was a form of perseverance. When I was at Penn State University, I failed to meet the academic standards at the school. I was very tempted to drop out, go back to Chicago, and let my track and field career fall by the wayside. But instead I decided to work harder in my classes, train harder on the track and try to leave my mark in the Penn State history books. What happened is that I became an 11-time All American, 8-time Big Ten Champion and the first Penn State Olympian in women’s track and field history. Because I worked harder in my classes, my schooling didn’t stop there. I went on to get my MBA in Marketing.”
