Goalies— their job is to go against any human instinct to duck or avoid a hit— their job is to block and take the hits. It goes against all human instincts to avoid pain or direct impact.

Sometimes in life, to get the job done right, we have to go against all of our natural instincts and what is familiar. At times, it won’t be about avoiding the hits, but we have to block and take things on. Don’t allow the other team to score. Victory is found in taking the hits.
