When Did You Move the Finish Line?

When Did You Move the Finish Line?

Isn't it funny how quickly we move the finish line?

We reach a goal we've worked toward for years…and within days we're focused on the next one.

I still catch myself doing that.

There's nothing wrong with ambition.

But I've learned there's value in looking back once in a while.

Not to live there.

Just to remember.

Remember what you've overcome.

Remember what you've learned.

Remember the version of you that would've been amazed by where you are today.

Progress feels different when you take time to notice it.

Your Rethink Moment

When was the last time you gave yourself credit for how far you've come?
