Champions To Heroes

Imagine the bedroom walls of young people, and consider the millions of dollars spent on sports and sports memorabilia. Americans place VALUE on the high-profile men and women who participate in sports in our country. Many want to emulate them, dream about their success, and admire their achievements. To achieve the best in life and leave a solid legacy, though, athletes in our culture must model a strong moral and spiritual character.
Every generation searches for answers to life's questions. Often, high-profile personalities are expected to know and live out those answers. They serve as role models but may live with little or no understanding of their values. Sports commentator, James Brown writes in his autobiography, "the definition of success and what it takes to be successful has been warped and twisted." those we look to for guidance, "the high-profile 'role models' are too often looking for a guiding light themselves."
Champions To Heroes (C2H) exists to provide the best mental training and mentoring for athletes (high school, collegiate, and professional) to reach peak and optimal performance in all areas of life. Anyone with a God-given gift can win a championship, but few have the tools to become the kind of person with the staying power of a genuine hero. C2H is a unique group of professionals in a range of disciplines as a part of the Cornerstone Creative Group of Cornerstone Lodge, Inc. As a non-profit, 501 (c) (3), we can provide the most strategic mental training techniques and mentoring from accomplished veterans and professionals. Our mentors come from the NFL, MLB, NBA, corporate America, and ethical coaches and individuals who want to make a difference.
Our program is laid out in three phases to firmly establish high personal standards and a "stay the course" commitment no matter what challenges or temptations athletes face. The goals of C2H are to assist each client in developing and solidifying a life plan, and to increase their mental skills for success in carrying out their specific and individualized plan.
