I am an Ironman

In October 2019, I completed an Ironman in Louisville Kentucky. It was a day that started in the 40’s, got to 70 and dropped back into the 50’s. Finishing an Ironman involves a lot of the same skills that allow us to be successful in our professions. Each day you put out your best effort and stay consistent with your plan. You can’t skip a training day due to rain, just like you can’t forget when that report is due. You must be ready to make changes in order to deal with obstacles. In addition to weather issues, you may have to find ways to overcome a mechanical, health or nutrition issue while in business you may need to deal with data loss, resource allocation or logistics. Once you start the race (or project) you don’t stop until you reach the finish. 

There are no problems, there are only opportunities looking for solutions. And always enjoy the journey on the way to the finish.
