Training: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Not all training is fun and sometimes it is downright ugly.  Or the humorous aspects will keep your mind engaged, but the overall content lacks applicability.  After attending training for the past 1.5 days, I would not say ugly describes it, but dull and uninteresting for 95% of the time definitely do.

Similarly so, committees and rules can fall into this category.  Why then do many businesses, athletes, and people thrive on the training and committee routine?  It works.

To increase flexibility, many people stretch.  Some find stretching not to be useful, but the following - when I take time to do it - always helps me feel better.

This image is of a professional and I am not in that league, of course, but we each have ways of coping in not fun situations (ugly training sessions, seemingly pointless meetings) and, if we strive to make the most of it, we end up building strength and character not unlike the figure below.

Find your strength and focus on ways to improve your weak areas.  It never hurts to explore!

Happy Wednesday.
