For MLK, Dr. King worked harder than his dreams, disrupted the norm, challenged convention, and although history doesn’t always completely capture nor continue his legendary life, the message is mostly for good and it got him killed for it. I’m not shy from doing whatever it takes to live my life, I’ve witness & lived through enough gruesome events in my lifetime to understand I still gotta live the one life I’m given. ✅Love what you do ✅Have fun, enjoy the process ✅Be consistent & deliver ✅Learn from others ✅Help who needs it ✅Pass on what you know ✅Do more good than bad ✅Lovingly make fun of people #chirp I guarantee no one, no movement, no smear campaign, no apocalypse, no pandemic, no media hype, no marketing campaign, no haters, NOTHING besides you can stop working your calling.

Helping Fathers’ skate with their kids is my FAVORITE part of this job. #padgic Size 13 shoes wide, sent him to Retail hockey stores to get “fitted” and see what’s available, what he could get locally or online… returns for these CCM Tacks 11.5 WIDE BRAND NEW for $250 with free custom fitting & sharpening. All took about 25 minutes total. He’s learning how to skate at @s4a_ice , his feet are comfortable in the boot, no pain, and with some effort, skating soon with his kids during practice! Uncle Essan never had any of these services growing up, his life’s work is helping those who walks through that door. Time & money-saving, professional, anatomically inclined with all the tools, wisdom & a few tips one man can offer. Services that can be FELT instantly. @pawdawannash will cuddle you if he knows he’s getting a treat. #JustTheTips #Smallbusiness #Hockey #Essan #Padgic #SanJose #Norcal (at Bay Area Hockey Repair & Sharpening) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnVtFoWrz_o/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What’s the value of leadership, having amazing parents and RV? @jasonrob19 as Filipino-American/Canadian as the owner of BAHR here in SJ. Hockey knows no ethnic nor racial group beyond marketing the game. Uncle Arturs was a soldier In Latvia when he was drafted in the expansion draft, before he ever played in IHL/NHL so when he quotes pucks going in the net like “Land Mines,” it’s not hyperbole. Hockey was and still built by immigrants from all over the world. Hockey will always be a meritocracy, the best will be discovered and showcased. I miss @jpav8 I know his leadership skills have a huge impact to mentor the youngin’s in Dallas. Jason’s brother Nick is just as good with Toronto FYI. My grandma @inangtoyang still doesn’t believe His grandson owns the shop and wants to meet the “White guy” real owner. PS: I’m not against appropriating race for growing the game, just know everyone that’s made it to the show made it by passion, work ethic, grit, & unrelenting support. Essan’s still trying to figure out it his role in it. All he knows is he’s still living the American dream of being an entrepreneur helping everyone that walks in or mails in gear from all over the world. #TGIF #Hockey #Marketing #Texas #SmallBusiness #Role #Padgic (at Bay Area Hockey Repair & Sharpening) https://www.instagram.com/p/Clr7w7xJKsW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
