Ever hear the phrase, “They were the one that got away”?
This isn’t exactly true. If they “got away”, for one reason or another, they didn’t mesh with our life.
Like a puzzle, some pieces clearly don’t fit while others appear to until we look much closer and observe with a keen eye.
As the 2023 CrossFit Open kicks off, I was thinking about my 5 years at CrossFitRTP and the incredible community we have there.
This quote came to mind…
“Home is when people notice when you’re not there” – Alexander Hayman
The best relationships in life have one clear thing in common.
There is a complimentary toolset that each person brings on the journey.
No one person is better than the other. Sometimes the tools one person has will be used and other times it’ll be the opposite. Oftentimes, the tools will work together to create something useful and generous.
Surround ourselves with people who when we look in their eyes there is a fire that projects back into our soul.
It may sound hokey but we’ve all experienced it at some point in our lives. There is this energy, this aura, this force that surrounds them. We know it’s different than most people we encounter.
