My Purpose statement.  I desire to possess a strong game that will allow me to compete with
anyone who wants a match. I want the advantage based upon the fact that I have worked harder
than my opponent. I will get to this level through hard work at a specific training program.

The reason I desire to reach this level is because I would like to win money. I do not go to a
tournament to see how far I can go. I do not go to a tournament to visit with the folks. I go to a
tournament to win money. I want to win as much money as I can. Winning money will make me
happy. I will feel like a winner.   Tim Miller  1-27-10
THE MISSION STATEMENT
My purpose is to become both a great player and a great teacher.  A great player is capable of
doing the Performance of a Master. A great teacher is one who has a heart of compassion for his
students.  I want to move my game to the master level.  I am one of the best players in the
Chicago land area but I want to be the best!  Also I want to improve my teaching skills so I can
help my students to reach their goals. I want to be able to explain myself in a clear way that is
easy to understand.  

The WHY in my purpose statement is that I want to become the best player and instructor that I
can be.  I want to know that I have done everything I can to be a winner when I play and a great
teacher so my students can reach their goals. Dominic
Here is my PURPOSE: The purpose of my endeavor is to become the best that I can be at: Being
a husband, a dad, a productive citizen, a trustworthy friend, and finally a great POOL player and
instructor. There are great "LIFE" lessons within your program that I need not mention, for the
ones the seek will realize their importance. ALL I WANT TO BE IS REALLY GOOD! for this attracts
respect and more students.

My purpose is to be the absolute BEST J Been I can be. For years my dream has been to
travel and shoot pool for a living. In this, I know i have picked a difficult task, but with the
proper preparation and the "I Came To Win" attitude I have learned from Mr. Miller's
teachings, I feel that my goal is more attainable than ever. I want to be the best, and I know
that in order to be the best, I will have to BEAT the best. I'm thankful for having a group of
people supporting me, no matter how small or large your contribution may be, in helping me
reach this lofty goal.

I was deeply touched by this girls singing so I
contacted her and found that she is a major
gospel singer in her country. As you can see
over a quarter million people have clicked on
her link to hear this fine song. I listen to it often
and always feel the strength of my Higher
Power. I am happy to share it with you.

Words are not that important in the spiritual
realm. Take a moment to close your eyes and
share your own self with God as you understand
Him.

I endeavor to be the best pool player I possibly can be. I strive to stay in the moment, shoot
one ball at a time, deliver the stroke and not worry about the consequences. Think only of
the shot in front of me and above all, deliver the stroke to pocket the ball. Leave the table
only after all balls are pocketed, or playing a “jailhouse” safety. Win, because I did not come
to just watch someone else take my money.
Leon Walters
I am a premier instructor in the Washington DC Area, serving students at the youth level
and beyond.

My goal is to establish an Academy of Cue Sport Excellence for this area and promote
tournaments for all levels of
play.  Having taught numerous students through the College of Southern Maryland and
Prince George's Community College provides me with the experience to enhance any
student's playing level. I have studied under the Monk for years and have read his
articles in the all of the Billiard Publications to include: Professor Q-Ball News and the
National Billiard News. I have no reservation in stating that with the Monk's Guidance and
tools, I will become the Monk Master/instructor/player that is dedicated to setting the
standard for shot makers in my area.
Mr Steven Brown
My purpose is to continually improve in this very competitive sport.  I will focus on
exceeding my own expectations during practice, league play, and tournaments.  I will
work decisively toward very specific goals in my practice and in my mental game. Once
these specific goals are achieved I will move on to the next. The enjoyment of this game
is what keeps me striving to be better.  I will never reach a level of skill where I will be
content and when I no longer enjoy the game I will no longer play.  I will use every
opportunity to use my knowledge and passion for this game to inspire other players.

Purpose statement:
I am going to dedicate my practice to a more concentrated effort to improve consistency
in my stroke and delivery.  My concentration on each shot must be more intense and I will
slow down enough to give me plenty of time to regain my confidence in my performance
in every shot.
Gene Dean
My purpose in pursuing the Monk Masters University pocket billiard program is to:

1.        Achieve a level of performance that affirms my self-discipline, professionalism,
self-respect and ability to stay on task.
2.        Play pocket billiards in an environment where I am proud to be at exactly the
level where I am.  Never to feel that I ‘should’ be better so that I can keep up with the
opponents.
3.        Continue to excel in the leagues I play in.  Specifically, to maintain the 9+
handicap level.
4.        Continue my pursuit of high scores in all the MMU tests:  performance pool
shots, mid-term, the multiple practice routines, and especially to keep the magic “1,000”
number as an ultimate goal.
5.        Remain faithful to myself and the game.  That means always showing respect and
courtesy to my opponents – win, lose or draw, at whatever level they play.
6.        I will continue to learn about this game and pass along any/all knowledge to
those who seek input from me.
7.        To honor this game – that means calling foul(s) on myself and telling my
opponents that they played well.

When someone tells you exactly where they are going you know you can trust them. If you are
ready to step up and declare your purpose you are ready to reach your goals.
My purpose is to improve the level of my game every day so I can become a great player
and a Monk Master Teacher in Portugal. As a great player I'll win more tournaments and
more money and as a Monk Master Teacher I'll help players that love this game as I do to
become better players.

My Purpose Statement

I would like to elevate my Game/Skill level to be ranked as a Master in various sanctioning
bodies/groups.  Presently I’m heavily involved in VNEA play, however I don’t want to just
limit my goal/goals of being placed on there Master Level listing to VNEA.  I will be
seeking out and getting seriously involved with other sanctioning bodies, BCA and any
other sanctioning Tournament circuits in the area and be elevated to there Master listing.
During this same time frame I will be working diligently on completing the Monk’s Master
Program.  I would like to complete or be well on my way by the end of the 2011/2012
Season.
After completion of the Monk’s Master program I would like to then be able to teach/share my skill’s and knowledge
with younger and older players alike, not only for proper way to play the game but also the proper way in
approaching and respecting the game. To help them to not only elevate themselves as an individual & as a person
but to also be an advocate in helping to elevate the image and perception of the game of pool & the quality of the
persons who play this great game to others outside of the game.

I would then like to be in a capacity to be able to Travel to other sanctioned Tournament Events nationally and be
able to compete at a very high level.

Along the way I will be pursuing employment within the Pool community, in some capacity, to help in supplementing
some of the cost involved with the Travel.  
My purpose is this.

To win the Bca which I have wanted to do for a long time, I know I can do it because I
have one won nationals before.

I want to be able to run three racks consistently.

I want to be able to live my life as a champion and not just on the pool table. For now
those are part of my purpose. I know as I grow and develop my game and live a life of a
conquerer.
New purpose:

play to win for a
higher purpose!
