I’m thinking about Being Charged, The drive for competence.


The question is, what unimportant activities are you spending too much time on, which could be better utilized to try meaningful new things?
John Wooden asks us to seek significant change.  I’m wondering if the marathon training is one of those things.  It’s tough because I love to be in excellent shape. One of the coolest things is knowing that for about 9 months out of each year I can run 20+ miles without a problem. I mean come on, how many people can say that.  I know right, now how many people can say it and mean it.  It’s just a great feeling. But I’m wondering if I should be making more of a contribution to a bigger cause. As I grow and become the person I want to be, I am seeing that I am also becoming the person the world needs me to be. This may pull me off of the road and into peoples home. 
Are you spending too much time performing an activity that is unimportant?
