This past weekend, I walked my daughter Katie down the aisle and gave her hand to her husband (and my new son-in-law) Hugh. The ceremony and reception were perfect, and I could not be more proud of them as a couple.
For some reason, I scheduled my annual physical examination with my primary care physician a few days prior to the ceremony. The conversation was direct, poignant, and heard loud and clear when he reminded me to take care of myself. I work out nearly every day, but since then, my workouts have been more intense because what I was doing was apparently not enough.
For those of you who know me, I work relentlessly and run hard in everything I do. I think I’m wired that way, but now I need to run harder.
My message this month is simple: run hard with me in all that you do. Network, engage, and make things happen in your personal and professional life. Be creative and be an inspiration to your co-workers, family, and friends. Don’t sit around and wait for it to come to you but be the leader that your team needs.
I am excited for what is next for Katie and Hugh, and I’m excited for what is to come for our communities for when we collectively run hard together.
