Take it to the limit...


America’s most decorated gymnast knows about giving her all: it’s a lesson we all need to learn from her. One week ago, I didn’t think businesses really had to close… then the governor here in Nevada closed all casinos and non-essential businesses and pushed us all to consider the importance of social distancing.  Three days ago, I didn’t think about staying indoors all the time… then the news of this virus and how fast and far it’s spreading pushed me to personally reconsider how I’m living my life. Yesterday, I didn’t want to believe I shouldn’t see anybody personally… then the number of people sick and dying in my own community pushed me to accept the reality of this thing. This virus, and the unknowns associated with it, have pushed us all to quickly accept new limits on how we’re living our lives at this moment… and I think it’s going to push us more. The lesson is that we always have more to give.  Take it to your personal limit today.
