The Well of Belief Inside

By Mike Hall, October 16, 2026

Theo is the main character in a terrific book.

He’s an older gentleman who’s kind of a soul reader…one who looks at a person or picture and senses what makes them tick…the hurts and the spirit conveyed by their eyes and expression.

These gifted readers see what others cannot. Long ago, they realized that the eyes are the window to the soul.

If you looked closely enough at this picture, you’d see a competitor drawing from an inner well and summoning belief, strength, power, and endurance as her competitor hits the wall and fades.

Belief is the cornerstone…the inner engine that drives one to dip so deeply into the well knowing that the power they own is inexhaustible and unstoppable.

Billy Mills was bumped and discounted during the final lap in Tokyo and then proved that his well of self belief was deeper than anyone in Olympic history.
