Some people will tell you, Monday sucks. They have a case of the Mondays as it were. I don’t know about that. Yes sometimes you aren’t quite yet ready for the weekend to end. Sometimes, you have actions and plans that only a work week can bring about.
I just came off of an intense weekend that was focused around a 1/2 marathon. Next weekend I’m going to do the same thing. It’s kind of the way of my world. Running. Of course it isn’t my entire life, but it is something that does help me focus. Like many things, it is as much a force for positive change as much as it is a metaphor for everything else that I aspire to do in my life.
People make goals. I’m going to run a 5K or a marathon or whatever distance. They reach the goal, and then they stop. But athletes do not stop. They keep at it. They use each event as a measurement of performance, and then they go back to do it again, with the hopes of improvement, and doing better.
That’s how life should be, it isn’t a goal, it’s a journey, and adventure. We strive continuously to do our best and be a better version of ourselves each and every-time.
The weekend is over, time to recover. Get your coffee cups at the ready and have a great week.
