The coffee bean message is the perfect message for any group, team or organization. Through Damon’s personal story of overcoming extreme adversity, he shows that no matter what the obstacles are in your life, you, too, can overcome them by choosing to be like the coffee bean and change your pot of boiling water into a pot of coffee.
“Our players were very impressed. He did a great job of talking about servant leadership, did a great job of talking about choices and decisions, cause and effect of those decisions. I think his story is very compelling because of the sacrifices he had to make to get his life back to where it needed to be. The message about helping other people and the power of controlling yourself, what you do and what you say, is so important. I’ve never heard it said as well as what Damon did tonight.“
