We're obsessed with "overnight successes", touchdown passes, home runs, and all things flashy.  While there is rarely a true overnight success, and those professional athletes spend thousands of hours of training that we don't see - instead we cheer and shout for moment.

Instead, we should be focusing instead of a base hit.  Base hits are easier, smaller, and yet have an amazing impact as they are done every single day.  If you are trying to hit home runs instead, you're spending most of your time striking out.

I also discuss how oxytocin (the connection hormone) supports this theory - check it out!

While hiking the mountains during a recent bootcamp immersion experience, one of the coaches made the claim, "it's better to keep up than to catch up".

What a declaration, and it's good advice on all fronts.

Lay waste to the thoughts that you can push your kids aside to somehow make up the difference with a ski trip or a night at the movies.  Instead, what can you do daily to invest in them.

Your health.  Why do we "sacrifice" for an extra hour of sleep or to watch TV at night because we're too tired from working... only to have a health crisis that forces us to "catch up"...

It's time to change your paradigm.  It's time to keep up.
