Aside from setting myself up for my own challenges, there is nothing I love more than encouraging and supporting other's in theirs. 12 miles or 1200 miles, the distance is not important, it's about having a dream Then the process and the personal accomplishment is unbelievable pay back, regardless of the final result. Or your age.
Some really good reasons for taking up a challenge
- Daring to chase your dreams
- To find out what you are capable of physically and mentally
- To learn the power of commitment and determination
- Doing something for your personal satisfaction
- Becoming a role model for your Family and/or Friends
- Learning about the process of reaching difficult long term goals
- Striving to achieve something personally difficult & challenging
If you follow the WaterTribe, there have been some interesting conversations going on between NCSU (Alan) and our home. Here are some snippets:
- Dad, lets team up and build a boat for EC 2008.
- Not enough time, it's less than 5 months away.
- No problem, I have a great idea.
- Your supposed to be a full-time student.
- Hmm, we'd have to build it in the basement, the garage isn't big enough or warm enough over the winter.
- We'll have to clean the basement :(
- Is it really 500-600 pound?
- Hmm, we'd have to remove the sliding doors and door frame to get it out.
