Mission 2, Day 62: Continued success

April 5, 2008 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment

Today I felt even better than yesterday.  If I could shake the congestion I'd be a much happier man right now. 

I had a great afternoon teaching chess to about 35 elementary school aged children.  It is something new I am doing and I have alot of work to do to figure it out the way I want it to work.  I had a great time, but more importantly, the children seemed to have a great time too.

Nutrition today was good.  I drank alot of water as usual. 

I went to a youth baseball game tonight.  That was interesting.  The team I was there to see came back in the top of the final inning to win 4-3. They were down 3-0 when the pitcher hit a 3 run homer.  They tacked on one more run and managed to shut down their opponents in the final half of the inning to win what seemed like a lost game.

This got me thinking about things.  We work week after week to produce results.  We analyze those results.  When a single week looks like a problem we change things up.  Perhaps that's the wrong approach?  Perhaps we need to stick it out for a longer period of time before making changes?  Consistency is the key to success and I don't see how we can be consistent by continually changing things up.
