Quotes of the Day:
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” Winston Churchill
“If I had to select one quality, one personal characteristic that I regard as being most highly correlated with success, whatever the field, I would pick the trait of persistence. Determination. The will to endure to the end, to get knocked down seventy times and get up off the floor saying. “Here comes number seventy-one!” Richard M. Devos
Tonight three of our women took the SRCF Advanced RX Skills Test. While they did not pass the required number of “go’s” all of them did outstanding and should be proud of their efforts, attitudes and success. They narrowly missed it. None of them hung their head and all of them left knowing what they need to go work on for the re-test. They left hungrier and motivated to pass it. Each of them PR’d something (or things) in the test. All of them (me included) had fun.
That’s the real point right? If our training isn’t fun it probably isn’t really worth it. Don’t lose sight of the big picture. Stay dedicated, persevere, and keep your goals high. Put the work in and take responsibility for whatever your goal and watch it turn into an accomplishment.
