2018 CLA Team Successes!

It is so easy to get so bogged down in the day to day grind of life that often we forget why we are doing some of the things we are doing. We all do it!

I was reminded of this while frantically trying to get all my end of year required coaching training done. I was listening to a coaching seminar where the keynote speaker, Chrissie Wellington (a world champion triathlete), was talking about her regrets. Her biggest regret was not slowing down enough to celebrating her successes. She challenged us as coaches to remember to celebrate our own successes and to make sure that we celebrate the successes of our athletes.

I thought a lot about this after the seminar was over. I always love to acknowledge everyone’s successes and try to make sure an highlight them through the year but many often get missed unintentionally. More than this though, the talk made me really wonder what each member of the CLA team considered success for themselves in 2018. As many of you know I sent out an e-mail asking this question and it has been fun to see the results and I want to make sure to share with the team. This list is by no means complete as we got some responses late. If you have successes you’d like to share, please send them along!  

The beauty of this shout out is that everyone’s successes are different and reflect all of our journeys. I hope to inspire you all to continue building on these successes in 2019 AND share with pride what you learn and accomplish. It truly is inspiring and humbling.
