Never stop challenging yourself~
How often do you really challenge yourself? This could be in your career, personal challenges, physical challenges, or any combination.

This event takes place in June and consists of riding my bike for 150 miles over two days. This would be a huge undertaking in which I would push and train myself harder than I ever have before.

But with the end in sight, will your business suffer like Adrian, or will it sprint towards the finish line?

And you've concluded, "Resolutions don't work for me." (You've got a lot of company on that one ...) Maybe you need a better approach. Instead of making a mental resolution, create a Mission Statement.
