Impossible no longer exists for natural grass fields. With
continued innovation and creativity, the future for grass
fields is BRIGHT! Some examples in 2012:
Bermudagrass under high traffic demand holding green
color, durability and growth on Oct. 15 in Washington, DC.
Impossible?!
Kentucky bluegrass growing with the aggressiveness and
durability of some bermudagrass varieties. Impossible?!
Author and motivational speaker Mr. Harvey Mackay
shares this story about achieving the “impossible”:
“A college student arrived a few minutes late for his final
exam in mathematics. The room was quiet with everyone
working hard and the professor silently handed him the
test. The student sat down and began to work. He solved
the first five problems in half the time, but the two on the
second page were tougher. Everyone else finished the
exam and left, so the student was alone by the end of the
time period. He finished the final problem at the last
second.
The next day he got a phone call from the professor. “I
don’t believe it! You solved the final two problems?”
“Uh, yeah,” the student said. “What’s the big deal?”
“Those were brain teasers,” the professor explained. “I
announced before the exam that they wouldn’t count
toward your final grade, but you missed that because you
were late. But hardly anyone solves those problems in
such short a time! You must be a genius!”
We start work apprentices and students on natural grass
fields learning about their limitations. How it is impossible for grass to take heavy traffic. Could we be blocking
our own “genius”?
According to Mr. Mackay, yes! “Genius” is sometimes just
not realizing that something is impossible.”
As 2014 begins, let’s feed the “genius” in us all and
