Finishing Strong

Leadership Value of the Day : Running through the finish

Sometimes we have a tendency to see that we have a slight advantage or a lead, and instead of finishing the race strong, we get caught up in running the race that someone else is running. We see someone's struggle and we say we can relax a little because they aren't as close as we think they are. In that moment we have already lost our race. We have betrayed our practice, and preparation for the race. We have decided to phone in our performance and let up instead of pushing ourselves to do our best. This is a problem if you ever want to become a great leader, and reach the peak of your own performance in the craft that you choose. We must discipline ourselves to work as hard as we can though the completion of the job or task. As we approach the final weeks of this year please don't give up, run through the finish so that you become familiar with the practice of finishing strong.
