The Personal Battles We Win Along the Way - The #InnovatorsMindset #Podcast S5 EP47

George Couros reflects on a book he read while he was training for the Disney Marathon! In this episode, you will hear Couros share three thoughts from the book, Run the Mile You’re In by Ryan Hall. Be sure to check out this episode for a heartwarming story about how the ideas shared by Hall connected to Couros’ beloved dog, Odom. Quotes: “I believe that we each have a mission to accomplish and that we have been designed in such a way that we are not lacking anything to accomplish it. Everything we need is already inside of us. We just have to find it and figure out how to cultivate it.” - Ryan Hall “I had to remind myself to celebrate others’ achievements because what makes me special, important, or of worth has nothing to do with my or anyone else’s performance. I shouldn’t look down on myself for not doing as well as someone else because the goal isn’t to be better than everyone else. My goal, when I was at my best, was always to be the best version of me that I could be. I found that if I was inspired by the breakthrough of others, then often those breakthroughs became my catalyst for believing I could do it too and experiencing my own breakthroughs.” - Ryan Hall “Sometimes our biggest victories aren’t the races we win. Sometimes they’re the personal battles we win along the way.” - Ryan Hall Links: The OC - https://www.theoc.net/ Run the Mile You’re In (Book on Amazon) - https://www.amazon.com/Run-Mile-Youre-Finding-Every/dp/0310354374 __________________________________________ Please share your thoughts with us on Twitter or Instagram at #InnovatorsMindset.
