By Paul Kreins

Like all sports, bowling can teach many life lessons. I've been in bowling my entire life. I've played bowling at the highest levels, but I never forgot that bowling is, and always will be, a game. And, the lessons bowling teaches us can help keep things in perspective in good times and bad.

Everything I know about life I learned from [the game of] bowling...

   1. We all have handicaps.
   2. Some people are honest in bowling yet cheat in life, but anyone who cheats in bowling, cheats in life.
   3. Even though you might not be the best bowler, you can always be the best that you can be.
   4. Success and failure are both temporary.
   5. Success is a lot more temporary.
   6. Although practice does not always make us perfect, no practice always makes us imperfect.
   7. No matter how good you are, there is always someone better and that person will usually find you and tell you.
   8. When you are good, you can tell people, but when you are great, they will tell you.
   9. Patience is a virtue, slow bowling is not.
  10. Don't touch other people's equipment.
  11. Choose your teammates carefully.
  12. Stay out of the gutter.
  13. If you keep trying you'll eventually hit something.
  14. The best always make it look effortless.
  15. You can always improve.
  16. It's sometimes more fun when you don't keep score.
  17. Good form always prevails in the long run.
  18. There are different strokes for different folks.
  19. Always keep a good grip on things.
  20. It's the follow-through that really counts.
