We are approaching the end of the first half of the year, and in
my household, the end of the first half of summer, considering that our kids
start back to school so early.
It makes me think about some of the goals I set for the year and
summer. Some of them are going quite well some of them not so much. In the
going well category, I can look back at my calendar, journal and back in my
mind and see where I have dedicated significant amounts of my own time and the
time and support of others to help make the things that happened.
I can also see where goals, personal and professional, have fallen
short. I can’t find the same bread crumbs of activity across my calendar and on
reflection as I can for the things that happened.
I am sure it’s a shocking revelation, but nothing good or great
just happens. Good, meaningful accomplishments (and relationships) take work
and dedication and interest and focus. They also require help and support from
team members, coworkers, family and friends. And when you look back across your calendar and memories, you can see the tracks. It’s cliché, but success leaves a trail.
