Going for Gold

Have you been watching the Olympics? I have been thoroughly enjoying them – the emotion, the achievement, the brilliance of the athletes is incredibly inspiring. One of the things that has really struck me about all the athletes is how hard they’ve worked to get where they are. Every one of their achievements is the result of years of determination, tenacity, hard work and focus.

Imagine it: for the four years leading up to these Olympics, these athletes are training every day, in all weathers, however they feel. I’m sure there are mornings they would rather just have a lie in. I’m sure there are days they want to jack it all in. I’ve heard them say there were days they wondered if the sacrifice was worth it, and came close to giving up.

But they didn’t, and as a result, GOLD!

If you really put your all into making your life awesome for the next four years, if you put the effort in, if you took even a fraction of the determination and tenacity these athletes have shown, what gold could show up in your life?
