Go the Distance - Give it a Tri!

The snow is melting and I am starting to contemplate participating in a couple triathlons. I enjoy triathlons, mainly because of the variety of activity and the challenge of transitioning from one activity to the next. They can be done individually and as a team.

Our businesses and our personal lives are really not that different than a triathlon. A triathlon is an endurance sport. It is all about how you face the challenge of completing each portion of the race and how smoothly you transition into a new portion of the race. If you do not pace yourself, you may not be able to sustain your momentum.

“Endurance is one of the most difficult disciplines, but it is to the one who endures that the final victory comes.” -Buddha

Know where your strengths lie. Continue to develop your strengths. Your weaknesses will diminish as your strengths increase. Practice. Take a course and sharpen your skills. Challenge yourself to the next level. Many of us do not know what we are capable of, until we try. Are you giving 100%?

“Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.”-Unknown
