Hey everyone, I’m lacing up my sneakers and running with @MolForecaster for Pedal for Kids 2025, a fundraising campaign supporting the Montreal Children’s Hospital Foundation (MCHF). If you'd consider a donation, please read on. On behalf of the kiddos, thank you!

Besides the 4 minute mile, what's a good example of people thinking something was nearly impossible until it was done, where it was then followed by many people matching the achievement it in relatively short order?

The CEOs who often bring to our conversations thoughts like "Am I the right CEO? If the board doesn't fire me, maybe I should fire myself?" are usually the best CEOs. Because these thoughts show how much they care. These folks are brave enough to be willing to look inside and see themselves from outside. They want to grow and become better leaders. They seek coaches and mentors and a support network to whom they are brave enough to express these thoughts. Taking this a little further, leadership is mostly an inner game. It's that constant loop of data gathering, introspection, self-awareness, and growth. It's a fun game full of adventure and learning. And the leadership game goes well beyond leadership... The leader becomes a scientist of life, an explorer, a philosopher... For me, being a guide for folks on this inner journey is the biggest blessing, particularly, at times when I can see their light when they can't. And as I'm writing this and doing my own self-reflection, my leaders coach me as much as I coach them. Our conversations become a catalyst for my own self-reflection. It's a two-way relationship, what I call a field. I always receive therapy from you guys, a sign that I've probably done my job well. Loving you, Angelos.
