Thank you for listening, and we hope this helps.

You've got what you'll want.

There's been some iconic father-son moments in sports history. Tiger hugging his son Charlie after winning

the Masters. Drew Breeze lifting up his son, Baylon after winning the Super Bowl, Michael Phelps running to

kiss his son Boomer after making Olympic history. And now there's a new one. Jack, Tom Brady screamed

as he ran off the field after clinching his 10th trip to the Super Bowl.

Before climbing the barrier, he points and asks security. Can I say hi to my son?

Love you, kiddo, Brady says after security lets him through. I love you, man. I'll call you a little bit later.

Love you, kiddo. Why do these moments give us the chills? Because we know

the feeling. It doesn't matter what happened at work. It doesn't matter what we've just done or been

through. The first thing on our mind, it's our kids. We want to tell them we love them. We want to share

with them. And here's the other thing about those moments.

Yeah, sometimes we wish that we've gone pro. Yeah, it'd be nice to make millions, to be famous,

to reach the pinnacle. It's a real prize. The thing these athletes all reach for? It's not the

trophy. They want what you already have. They want their kids. Sure, pursue your dreams.

Strive to be one of the best at what you do. Aspire to be great and successful and all that.

But don't ever forget that when or if you get there, you're only going to want what you already have.

You can say hi to your son or your daughter right now. You can tell

them that you love them right now. And it'll feel just as good as a trip to the Super Bowl.
