“Everyone makes mistakes. Not everyone owns them.”

It can be ever-tempting to blame a failure on an external factor. Yet when we do, we gain nothing. We shirk responsibility, and with that, a learning opportunity.

Learning starts with ownership. Recognizing that we can do this better. No one is infallible – we will all make mistakes, and be part of larger mistakes that involve a host of other people. But, even when it’s easy to allow ourselves to blame the situation, look inward.

Ask ourselves the simple question – “What could I have done better?”

“The only thing that is different about me, is that I’m not afraid to die on a treadmill.” – Will Smith

It’s not about the treadmill.

It’s what the treadmill stands for.

Will Smith is not a competitive athlete. If he runs 2, 3, 10 miles… he’s still probably going to be highly successful in his career.

Probably.

But that’s not why he is, who he is. Not defined by what he’s doing, but instead by how he is doing it.

Full heart, full commitment, full effort. In wherever we go.

Rowing Speed Golf:

8 Holes (4 Each Partner)

Hole 1: 178 Meters

Hole 2: 212 Meters

Hole 5: 239 Meters

Hole 6: 207 Meters

Hole 7: 246 Meters

Hole 8: 222 Meters

12 Minute Cap

Partner Not Rowing:

Ankle Stretch

*This is rowling with a golfing twist to it. Parter one will take on the first hole, looking to land exactly on 178 meters. If they are 5 meters short or 5 meters long, they will complete 5 air squats before their partner can start. Partner 2 will then reset the monitor and try to land exactly on 212 meters. Teams are trying to be fast, but accurate. The team who is done first will be crowned the winner. Partner not rowing can complete an ankle stretch that will help with mobility for rowing.

“You must expect great things of yourself before you can do them.” – Michael Jordan

There is an invisible, impenetrable ceiling that we can place on ourselves.

It’s our own expectations.

The level of effort we will put in today will be relative to what we believe we can accomplish. If we don’t believe we can lose the weight, we won’t put in the work to lose the weight. If we don’t believe we can get the job, we won’t put in the research and studying to get the job. We can’t summon the effort for something we don’t believe is possible.

Yet, starting with the right mindset is only the first part of the puzzle, and often the easiest part. It’s maintaining the belief, during the guaranteed adversity. This is where most fall – we succumb to the failures and missteps… and we change our expectations. We change our goals, to something more “attainable”. We settle.

That’s when we can remind ourselves that this quote came from a man who was cut from his High School basketball team. He had every reason to change his expectations. Every reason to aim lower, or in a different direction. And that would have been that. Yet – we know the rest of story.

What will be ours?

“Let character be your loudest statement.”

The football player wears shoulder pads and a helmet.

The chef puts on an apron.

The accountant brings a suitcase.

These are all identifiables that may come to mind when thinking of those individuals.

What are yours?

Be hard on yourself here. How would others define you?

Let character be what defines you.
