Sabah Adventure Challenge – Pt 5

A couple of years back I scribbled these reflections on participating sports. Why I do why I do ! . . #fortheloveofsports #triathlon
WARNING: A long post on what makes you tick ! . . Been asked a couple of time 'how' I do the variety of things which I do. I won't have a sure answer. To me, 'how' comes at the end of the spectrum. ie 'how do we solve poverty?', 'how do I lose weight?', 'how do I stay build my mental resilience?'. .'how do I become a doctor?' . What can be asked in place of the 'how' sort of questions is 'Why'? And then 'What'...and then 'How'. This is not a school of hard knocks, but I think we can also open our minds to understand why people do what they do. . . . .For the triathletes and Ironman(s) reading this, we can also be ambassadors to educate people to ask right & building questions ie instead of asking 'how you do it?' challenge them to ask 'why do you it?'. I can guarantee it will take the conversation to a higher level. . . . Same thing with the 'how many times have you done Ironman' , do guide them to ask 'Why do you the Ironman?'(first) , or 'What it takes for you complete an Ironman?'. The hows questions can always come later ! . . The number of times you cross that finish line doesn't validate the level and amount of effort, sacrifice and hardships you go through to achieve each finish line. Same applies to any obstacles and achievements in life. . . . Then again, should your motivation be the number of times, number of qualifications, awards, or timing for that matter, then the standards (of conversations, and questions) can be catered around that too. We are all motivated differently hence what makes you tick may vary with another person even if you are on the same course or facing a similar obstacles. . . #mummyoftwo #trimum #workingmum #effortquotes #sacrifice #hardwork #ironman #trimom #itsatriathletelife #missjewelzcom #questions #motivation #thinkbeforeyouask
"Mummy! Mr.Bean ! Orang tu macam Mr.Bean lah!" . . CikMinah is an observer through the many times she made me look twice for/at things. Whether looking for a bird, plane, she spotted out of my view range.
