Find Greatness

We love the Olympics and have been watching daily. It’s awesome to watch people who work so hard and who are so incredibly talented! Olympians have to put in hard work for years and make a lot of sacrifices to accomplish their dreams. Most people won’t even skip dessert at one meal, let alone put in the blood, sweat and tears that are required to be the best in the world. While Olympic glory will happen for such an unbelievably small percentage of people, that shouldn’t stop you from doing everything you can to be the best YOU that you can be. We all have the power to be great!

Just think about Oscar Pistorius, the 400-meter runner and double amputee who competed in the Olympics, nearly making the finals. He’s said, “You are not disabled by the disabilities you have, you are able by the abilities you have.” This is so true! We focus too often on what we can’t do instead of what we can. So we challenge you to focus on the “cans” in your life, and take control of your health and well-being.
