We all face challenges—in our personal lives, business or work, communities. And, we all choose how we face those challenges.
This week, I learned about the Bigler family who has faced major tragedies in the past couple of years. Brad Bigler is the head men’s basketball coach at Southwest Minnesota State University in Marshall and was featured on ESPN’s E:60 show that aired in December. The video was posted online this week.
After watching, my heart goes out to this family for their great loss—but it also is lifted by how they’re taking one step at a time and treasuring life on their journey ahead.
It’s clear that Coach Bigler is an incredible role model to his players and this family is an inspiration to those around them. Now, they’re touching even more lives as more of us hear their story. I hope the Bigler family knows that they have MANY people in our southwest Minnesota regional community who continue sending them thoughts of support and encouragement.
Join me in thanking this special family for sharing a hard chapter in their lives to remind us that hope and perseverance are keys to “moving on” even when life is hard.
Please take 15 minutes to watch “Bigler’s Way.”
