The Secret of the Gold Medallion

"Son, you can do anything with hard work and practice. Practice makes perfect. You know your grandfather hit many homeruns because he practiced all the time and he always carried his lucky coin. Right before a game, he would rub his lucky coin without fail. He hit a home run each time leading his team to five national championships. He was great. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Everyone called him "The Gifted One" because he had a special gift for turning the game around with all his talent. With all the bases loaded and in the last inning, he would hit a home run and beat the leading team. The best thing about that is he gave me his magic coin to one day give to you because he saw that you had "the gift." So here is Dad's magical coin. I want you to have it, but you have to remember one thing. It only works if you work hard and believe."
