“Less talk and more action” are the perfect words to start a conversation about Allan Spry. Everywhere he goes, he leaves a mark, quietly yet unmistakably strong and unforgettable. Do you need an uplifting, encouraging story? You’re reading the right blog. When you finish, share it.
Every young man, as anyone of any age, is a work in progress. Allan has certainly made leaps and bounds already and he’s only in his 20s. He‘s described by many as the “good guy”. The Good Guy Swag is the best title for this blog, fitting for Allan since he exudes integrity and character. Many people talk a good game but oftentimes, there is no substance to it—nothing is done to substantiate their claims. A good guy is less talk and more action. 
While playing high school and collegiate level football as an offensive lineman, Allan did not engage in idle chatter nor did very much “trash-talking” rather executed the plays on the gridiron. He doesn’t practice braggadocious lingo, never praises himself nor speaks proudly about his own achievements. Yet, he often encourages others to pursue their dreams and compliments others for their achievements/milestones. When he says he’s going to do something, expect it; don’t doubt him. He does what he says he’s going to do. Oh yes…he is the epitome of being reliable and honest. That alone screams good character. 
Life After College
Upon graduating from college, as any young man who is excited about starting a career and a life of independence, Allan had plans. After a knee injury and for other reasons, he made the decision not to play football beyond college. He always knew that he wanted to be an entrepreneur. After all, he had examples of entrepreneurship all around him. His parents had owned a franchise restaurant, his father later launched a company in honor of his two children [Allan & Allison], his uncle owned a general contracting company, and there were other relatives and friends in his personal network who were entrepreneurs. In addition to adopting the family entrepreneurial spirit, Allan simply wanted to be his own boss [a game changer] and make a difference in others’ lives.
An Unforeseen Detour
Life has a way of throwing a few detours along your journey. With an unquenchable faith and belief that GOD knows what’s best and never fails and based on his Family upbringing, Allan stayed the course placed before him. Despite the job offer he received outside of his home state, despite the opportunities that he could have followed to start a career, he made the “admired and respected by many” decision to care for his terminally-ill father. There would be no debating about his decision; he said he was not leaving the state, rather he committed to being his father’s primary caregiver. That’s not only a display of selflessness but undeniable love for his father. One might say that his action was a “real man’s decision”.
Blessings Always Come
Allan knows what Blessings look like. After all, he had experienced them throughout his life. He has always believed that making sacrifices equal to selflessness and when anyone does good work, serves his fellowman, GOD will take care of your needs and desires too, if HE agrees with them. Allan knew that GOD’s omnipotent plan exceeded his imagination but is always best amongst any plan that he or Man could ever conjure. *Allan had always displayed patience and perseverance so while continually helping others and awaiting GOD’s plan, he knew that something great was going to happen. His parents taught him that “good things happen to good people” and to “do his best and GOD would do the rest.” 
Moving Forward: Full Steam Ahead!
Allan and his sister, Allison, had been planning to start a business for a long time. Both had the same entrepreneurial desire and longtime interest in sports, always wanting to help catapult others to success, support their community, and award college scholarships to deserving high school students. From that foundation, Spry Players Group, LLC, #SPG, emerged. The company is a sports management firm and success plan headquarters, propelling athletes and professionals into their destiny. Noteworthy: SPG was launched in 2018. It has already secured a few lucrative contracts. AND two (2) $1,000 scholarships were awarded in May 2019 in honor of their father’s memory. SPG’s goal is to award scholarships annually.
Allan, Vice President of Operations for SPG, has plans for the family firm. It would be a risky presumption for anyone to think he’s at his peak. In fact, Allan is just scratching the surface of personal and professional accomplishments.
Talk vs Action: Allan says you should, “Do what you love.” His action loudly speaks, challenges will come but faith, hard work, and perseverance will take you to the end zone for a touch down!
