It's simply and impactful. Yes, preparation is important. Our attitude and perspective are equally as so.You could have been ticked at the lack of wind or have berated yourself for toppling. Either would have inhibited your enjoyment and not given us, your readers, a valuable lesson. Our attitude and choice of perspective matter. These often are indicators of how successful we will be. Yes, there will always be changes in wind and using a surfing metaphor we may not always catch the wave. But our attitude and perspective can better position us to do so the next time around. Thanks for the post. Great picture! Steve – I like this post. It’s simply and impactful. Yes, preparation is important.
