The statement of intention

So a friend has an item on his "bucket list" and stated I could join in his effort....an Ironman!!

I thought at first it was crazy, then thought exciting, then how much work and commitment it would be,....so a yes, then no, then maybe...

But need to make a statement of intention. Decided I will enroll (have to do so 1 year in advance) and then during training I will do at least a full triathlon and a 70.3 half ironman.
And the icing on the cake would be the full Monty. So here we go....

A shift in thinking small

As I have grown in my career the big shift I've had to make is to think big, or end to end. Don't sweat the small stuff etc...
If I have the strategic vision as the leader then all working well.

But now I have seen a shift through the SCRUM and TPS process that it's about the bite-size work. Outline and write the small details, time bound them, and iterate on improvements to the smallest detail.

I'm finding it hard in my mind to welcome this new reality. I have lots of excuses and pushback in my mind of why this won't work.

I guess that is natural state in this big shift, but it made me realize how I thought I was open minded and welcomed change and as I have gotten older I have shifted out of this. I guess the risks of change are higher now.
