If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.
Hang in there if you are struggling. Odds are, you are.
I know I sure am. Ran once last week. Once! How is that possible?
So here we are, another week. Yesterday, I swore there would be time for a run. After delivering four keynote speeches yesterday, each to a different audience, exhaustion took on a whole new meaning. No run.
Today is another day…. for all of us. Good luck. Do not give up!
