I don’t know about you but I enjoy watching the Olympic games whenever I can. One of my favorite sports to watch is swimming. This year I watched with bated breath as Michael Phelps broke a 36-year-old record by winning eight gold medals in a single Olympics. I remember watching him in 2004 and being amazed at his skill at that time. Imagine how much better he was this year after training for four more years! Personally, I’ve never been much of an athlete and I’m truly amazed by what people can get their bodies to do through constant hard work and training. It inspires me to do better in my projects - even though they’re not physical.
Michael Phelps set a goal and he never let that goal out of his sight. Everything that he did helped him on his path to success. You can do the same thing in your own life. Set a goal. It can be a small one or a huge one. Then keep your eye on that goal and don’t let anything keep you from reaching it. Do something every day to help you get there and, in time, you will win your own gold medal by achieving your goal.
