A Lesson on Success from Bruce Jenner
| |
| Bruce Jenner seemed to have it all. He was the 1976 Olympic decathlon champion who seemed too All-American to be true. He was the man on the Wheaties box and on the cover of Sports Illustrated. But in 1980, by his own account, you would never have recognized him.
I was living in the hills outside of Los Angeles, in a one- bedroom bungalow-where the dirty dishes filled the kitchen sink and a dried-out Christmas tree from the holidays four months ago sat in a clump beside the door-serving as the only attempt at interior decoration. I'd lost between fifteen and twenty pounds and years of physical inactivity had left me looking thin. I probably needed a haircut, but living alone with nobody to talk to, I would have been the last to know. |

Setting Goals – How to Get Started!
| |
| "I really admire those Olympic athletes, but I could never do anything like that!" These are some of the comments I've heard over the past few weeks from people with whom I have been discussing the Olympic games. Typically, you would not find me in front of a TV for hours, let alone watching sports. No way! However, it was with a great sense of pride, and interest, that I did watch a lot of the games on TV. I did so with purpose and intent - and for the entertainment, of course. I have always been very goal-oriented and I am happy to share my goals with people who can help me and support me.

Chicken or Beef?
| |
| As a former national champion Olympic weightlifter, one of my prized possessions is my gold
medal. It is a very special momento to me, which I display in my office. Recently, I was traveling
on an airplane, and I met a unique gentleman seated next to me. If they ever add an Olympic
event called the Marathon Bad Attitude, this gentleman will have a gold medal, too.
Shortly after introducing myself, he told me he didn't like the airline we were flying on, the
seats, the aisles, or our flight attendant. He went on to inform me he didn't like the city we were
in, the airport we were connecting through, or our final destination. I don't think he liked me
either, but we didn't get that far into the conversation.
