Do you remember Bob Hayes, the man who was named "World's Fastest Human"?
He was a hero of 1964 Olympics, bringing home the Gold Medal in the 100
meter run, and being clocked at incredible 8.5 seconds in the final 110
yards of 400 meter relay run.
After the Olympics, he became an all-pro wide receiver for the Dallas
Cowboys. His college coach said that if there had ever been a kid he wished
was his, it was Bob Hayes.
Then, in April 1979 Bob was convicted of selling narcotics to an undercover
agent. He received two 5-year prison sentences. He went from the pinnacle of
success to prison.
According to Hayes, and those who cared most about him, his downfall was
caused by his inability to choose good friends. The people he hung around
gave him a bad example and got him into trouble.
As a rule, we usually reflect the thoughts and lifestyles of the people we
spend the most time with.
