#572 The Universe Will Always Say Yes: What is Your Mindset? - Featuring Rocky Jackson

Rocky Jackson has always enjoyed staying active. He was an employment labor attorney for 43 years, and at age 19, he was drafted by the Cleveland Indians in 1969 out of Yakima Valley Community College, which he jokes makes him the oldest living holdout of the team now called the Cleveland Guardians. He spent his college years playing against future MLB greats, collecting enough road-trip stories to fill a book.Since age 35, Rocky has played tennis on and off, and now in retirement, he is on the courts several times a week, even playing singles for the sheer joy of long rallies and movement. Rocky is an avid golfer who has played around the world with his wife, braving everything from beach courses to 105-degree summers. He strongly believes in cross-training workouts and is adding lap swimming into the mix. After double hip replacements in 2020, Rocky came back stronger, and at 75, he’s still playing singles tennis and living by the beliefs that “The universe always says yes” and “You have to use it or lose it.” Send us Fan Mail
