This is an iconic picture. His professional athletic career is a hallmark of excellence and success. It is no wonder that he is considered the GOAT of professional basketball.
What’s something most people don’t know about you?
I don’t watch much movies. For example, I have never seen any of the Star Wars films. I wasn’t brought up on the typical diet of films. My parents didn’t want too much raw imagery in my head growing up.
Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?
Not really, because I always feel like I need to do something. I believe that it comes from a place of unproductivity. Rest is productive but laziness is not. One comes from purpose and intention while the other comes from the lack thereof.
What could you try for the first time?
I could go skydiving. My friend Nick has asked me a couple of times, but I’ve never accepted. This year could be the year of another first!
What makes a good neighbor?
There’s an adage that states “Good fences make good neighbors.” A good neighbor is someone who recognizes their boundaries. This is based on mutual respect and integrity. Otherwise the person will become a nuisance.
This question reminds me of Steve Urkel’s character in the TV show “Family Matters”. He was often the comic relief of the show. His comedic value was shown in the way he constantly interacted with his next door neighbors, the Winslows. He would constantly appear in the Winslows’ house without invitation and inadvertently cause mischief. Often times Steve’s presence in the house caused a lot of consternation to the patriarch of the family, Carl Winslow.
Steve did not know his boundary with the Winslow and a bad neighbor will exhibit the same awareness. Neighbors have to be aware and respect their neighbors boundaries. Otherwise they will be a pain in the side much like Steve Urkel.
