Seattle Seahawks running back Derrick Coleman is the first legally deaf offensive player in the NFL. He’s also teaching us to trust the power within in order to achieve our dreams.
In the new Duracell commercial, Coleman shares his story of overcoming football setbacks: being picked last when playing football with peers, bullying, communication issues with coaches and not being selected in the 2012 NFL Draft.
But those setbacks didn’t stop him from pursuing his dreams. He’s now set to play with his team in front of the NFL’s loudest fans on Sunday in a game that will determine who will be headed to the Superbowl.
Moral of the story: Trust Your Power!!
