Be That Person

What can we learn from the Olympics about chasing and realizing dreams? Over the previous two-ish weeks, I found myself captivated by this once-every-four-year sporting event spectacular.

As an American, several events only come across my consciousness thanks to these multi-national athletic games.

The stories abound about these athletes from all parts of the world who wait four years.

They all have the dream to compete against the world's best.

They train and train and train some more.

They do what they need to do in order to be the Olympian of their dreams.

I am no Olympian. I do have dreams. I dream of being a great leader, to help others grow and become great leaders themselves, to be a great colleague and friend, to be a great husband and father. I dream of being someone who makes a difference in our world.

Who do you want to be? What's your dream?

The blessing of our human condition is that we get to decide. You get to decide.

You get to decide who you want to become.

Like the Olympians pursuing their dreams, we must also take action to realize our dreams. We must take small steps.

Who will you be?

What is it that you need to do in order to be that person?

Create your life.
