- My client started training for triathlons
- Everyone in his life thought he was having a midlife crisis
- He heard it so often he even started wondering that himself
- On the day of his first tri, he was super nervous and started to think heād made a big mistake ā and was even thinking of going home
- A man came up to him at the starting gate and said something that changed his mindset completely
āWant to know what my favorite number is?ā the man asked him.
āItās the number of people who told me I was crazy for doing this.ā
Then the race-starting air horn blasted and the guy took off.
And my client was left standing there, thinking: WOW, heās right!
The whole reason heād decided to do a triathlon was BECAUSE it was different, challenging, and uncomfortable ā way outside his comfort zone.
Now it was time to prove himself rightā¦ and the doubters wrong.
And (you guessed it) not only did he finish that triathlon ā he competed in another, and another after that! And now those doubters are his cheerleaders!
Just something to keep in mind as youāre setting those 2024 goals!
Donāt be afraid to stretch out of your comfort zone.
āThe sooner you step away from your comfort zone youāll realize that it really wasnāt all that comfortable.ā ā Eddie Harris, Jr.
Sometimes the BEST reason to do something is simply to prove to yourself that you can. (And maybe those doubters, too.)
