Yogi Berra’s Legacy However, his second stint as Yankees manager ended just 16 games into the 1985 season, when owner George Steinbrenner fired him through a subordinate. Berra’s son, Dale, was a player on that team. The firing marked a tough stretch for both father and son. Yogi vowed never to visit Yankee Stadium again, while Dale subsequently was involved in a drug scandal. Dale turned drug-free after some tough love from his father, and published a memoir about his experiences. As for Yogi, he and Steinbrenner eventually made up, prompted by team broadcaster Suzyn Waldman. When the reunion turned stormy, Carmen Berra intervened to defuse tensions.

There will always be people who can do it better than you, but that’s a good thing! Start to see competition as inspiration — without envy. Read a few quotes before you practice yoga or meditation to set an intention or mood for your practice. Authentic joy is not a euphoric state or a feeling of being high. Rather, it is a state of appreciation that allows us to participate fully in our lives. We train in rejoicing in the good fortune of self and others. ― Pema Chodron
