I recently saw this great photo of Michael Phelps and Chad Le Clos and was struck by how focused Michael is on his goal and what is ahead of him in his lane. Chad’s focus appears to be outside of his lane and more on Michael than with what lies ahead of him. I starting thinking about what distracts me from my goals. What pulls my attention and awareness outside of my lane…is it comparison, is it fear, is it both of these things? It left me being curious about ways I can lovingly pull my focus, awareness back to my lane.
