These challenges are based on what is already out there. The joy of living is in the interactions, actions between you and me, and with others. You can choose one of these challenges found in LEADERSHIP LESSONS FROM TRIATHLONS. It will help you facilitate your thinking, mindset and relationships should you consider taking those first steps. Do write me about what you have experienced and discovered.
SWIM: Discover something new. Immerse yourself fully in it for 3 days. Review what you have learnt. When was the last time that you plunge into something new? What did you like about it? What did you dislike? Why?
BIKE: Ride along with somebody for 3 days; do ask for permission first. Find out what it is like to work closely with somebody in a project. What is most challenging about working closely with them? What did you appreciate from their Personal Space? What did you learn about what is uncomfortable and comfortable for you? What is like being a follower?
RUN: We run our own lives, don't we? Have you ever run towards something different? What drives your curiosity? What are you most curious about? What happens when you are curious? Have you been spontaneous before? Have you run away with a runaway idea? What was it like? Swim fluidly. Ride hard. Run gracefully.

i had a interesting 5 weeks in school completing a module soon.
I was immersed with new knowledge and shared alot of my own with others. Was interesting that pressure to learn overtaken my discomfort in doing things that were outside the comfort zone
As a team, we were require to perform under stress and alot of time requiring us to follow others despite being leaders. Its like rotating a leader among leaders.
When the eventual plan is derived, we needed to drive the plan or sell the plan. We needed to communicate to influence people to buy our ideas despite having some old farts around.
Good writting, triggered some of my own reflections.
