STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The essence of Coach Mahr’s purpose, mission,
vision and approach.
Coach Mahr takes his mission from Luke 12:48,
“Much will be required of the person entrusted with much, and still more will be demanded of the person entrusted with more.”
The better we understand what has been entrusted to us, the better we give in a way that develops others and ourselves. It is in recognizing the talents we have received and from Whom that we find our most profound identity, and it is in giving that we experience our most sincere mission.
Coach is grateful for many blessings - good genes, a loving supportive family, positive experiences of mentors and role models. He understands that with these godsends come expectations to be a blessing to others.
Coach recognizes that he is in his Final 1/3 with the focus to build up others; fostering ‘eulogy virtues’ as opposed to ‘resume virtues.’ He was wired to be a Coach - it has been his passion, not his profession – it is now his repurposing, not his retirement.
Coach's "I am" statement - "I am a child of God whose love comes through me to benefit everyone I interact with be it family, friends, colleagues, and even total strangers."
