Fuel Your Potential

In his book, Finding the Life You’ve Always Wanted, best-selling author John Ortberg uses a sports metaphor to explain a tried and true method to maximizing your motivation.

He says, “Suppose you woke up tomorrow morning and decided to run a marathon. You put on some running shoes, don the right apparel, and head out the door to begin your 26.2 mile run. Could you do it? What if you tried hard? Really, really hard? If you gave it the ole’ 110%? The obvious answer is, for most of us would be no, of course not.”  

“Too often, we “try to do better” in an area of life. The problem is that trying won’t get us any closer to our goals. Only training will do that.”

No matter how hard we try, most of us couldn’t simply head out the door and run 26.2 miles. If we want to run a marathon, we’re going to have to train for it. Effort alone just won’t cut it.

But what if you woke up each morning and trained to run a marathon by following an exercise program, a running schedule, and a recovery schedule? Almost anyone will have the ability to successfully complete a marathon.

That’s the difference between training and trying.

Vision: What is your personal vision for the goals you desire to achieve. What will the outcome look and feel like 1 year from now?

Intentions: What “decisions and or agreements” do you need to make to fulfill your vision? Who can you share your “intentions” with?

Means: What practical actions will become part of your daily life?

We love the V.I.M. acronym and use it as a process in our RISE Coaching Program an our 21 Days to a Stronger Leaner You. We simply focus on the small intentional actions we can weave into our daily routine, and it makes all the difference!

We hope this inspires you to take a fresh look at your goals and to intentionally move towards them in a way that really fuels your true potential.

Blessings from all of us at RISE,
Dee, Sean and the team
