Hester's East View Patriots came from behind to win the game 42-41. In his interview, Hester takes the opportunity to remind viewers that "all it takes to be successful is an attitude."

"It's an awesome feeling when you truly believe that you're going to be successful," Hester said. "Regardless of the situation, regardless of the scoreboard, you're going to be successful because you put in all the time, all the effort, all the hard work and you know that it's going to pay off."

If that doesn't make you want to go out and seize the day, we're not sure what will.
