Celebrate the small successes. Never stop pursuing excellence. (TTT #16)

There are many small victories on the way to achieving your goals. Make sure and acknowledge them, celebrate them. They will encourage and inspire you.

Never stop looking forward and trying to improve.

Never "settle."

Yesterday I did the hour swim and had a performance that was extremely gratifying and validating of the kind of shape I believe I'm in. I'm excited, encouraged.

But I want more.

One of the things that makes an athlete great is, to borrow Simon Whitfield's mantra- "the relentless pursuit of excellence."

Never stop pursuing excellence. In life or in sport.
