Start again.
I'm still reflecting on some lessons from Chasing Great - the film about All Black captain, Richie McCaw.
That list he wrote before each game began, each time, with 'Start again'.
I love that.
I referred to it at our first assembly of the term - a new start!
Achievements are great and they are important for a time, but they mean little to the present situation where you have to prove yourself all over again (and again and again...).
Being mindful of the past and future is fine, but not at the expense of the moment - yes, Qui-Gon again.
In that way you are always aiming to improve.
Richie's list always ended with G.A.B. (Great All Black). A reminder of his goal (he barely dared to dream it and write it down - such was his humility).
Dare to dream. Write it down! Keep it!
