Persisting tirelessly.
I love the word indefatigable. I want to be that…every day…in everything I do. It is a word that needs to become part of who I am as a father, partner, friend, leader and person.
I want to, somehow, be everything. Is that even possible? My rational mind says absolutely not. But right now, I don’t care. I want to think bigger than I ever have before. I want to believe that I can push myself…enjoy every step of the journey…
…and be everything.
Foolish Path
The practical voice in my head says I’ll wear myself out, or I’ll get too stressed, or I’ll not be able to keep up with my growing list of responsibilities.
But, since when has a “practical voice” ever led to a breakthrough life? I’ll tell you when…
Never.
“Is wanting to explore a new awareness of my world…the whole world…a bad thing? Is this actually a foolish path to follow; or, is it the path that each of us wishes we had the courage to pursue?”
New Path
I’m not entirely sure what this looks like. I’m not even sure I can pull it off. But why shouldn’t I try? Why shouldn’t I challenge the ingrained societal messages about going too hard in life? Why shouldn’t I say I’m going to make up my own set of rules, and the world can deal with it?
That feels like the path for me.
I don’t want to be just another #HealthcareHR leader.
I don’t want to be just another consultant.
I don’t want to be just another good guy.
I want to spend my life kicking ass in every way possible.
How About You
How hard do you push? How much is too much? When do you challenge yourself to take your entire life, not just your career, to a whole new level?
Maybe today is the day to answer those questions?
I’d love to hear from you.
No Excuses.
