COT:
YHC is speaking on a “Strength in Numbers” podcast today, which has forced some thought on how to better enable grit, determination and perseverance in our lives. My thoughts centered around developing goals. Goals give us hope and something to shoot for in our lives. We all need to have goals so that when things get tough, there is something out there that we have committed to that will keep us going and focused. So set a goal today, whether it’s to read a book, finish a marathon (or GoRuck event), or build your 2.0 that fort he’s always wanted. Make it a finite goal with a clear objective, and it will help you become a better father, brother, son, boss, colleague, crazy uncle, or whatever your role in lie.
Aye!
