684: 5 Important Lessons On Trying Something New

Sep 12, 2022

Last weekend I did my first triathlon in 18 years. It was an incredible experience - which I almost put it off until next summer. I’m so glad I didn’t wait. I shifted a 12-month goal to a 2-month goal and it paid off - big time.  


Whether you’re working toward a new goal or returning to a goal from the past, I want to invite you to take a look at how you’re approaching your goal. Your perspective and approach will deeply impact your experience and your outcomes.  


When I did triathlons 18-22 years ago, it was so much work and so much stress. A lot of the training felt like a grind. It was all very intense.  


You would think, at age 46 and being out of the game for so long, I would have felt that intensity and stress return as I took up training again. I did not.  


I was really intentional about how I approached this goal. My approach allowed me to enjoy every moment of training and every second of race day.  


In this episode, I talk you through 5 Important Lessons On Trying Something New in hopes that you can cut your deadlines on your goals in half in order to get to the finish lines faster - and with a ton more ease and joy!
