By Zig Ziglar, “Doing your best is more important than being the best.”

Striving to be the best is desirable but giving your best is what makes the difference. My son is passionate about racing mountain bikes. He puts in long training hours to develop his fitness and skills. As a senior in high school, he raced at the varsity level. Watching him race has made me realize that the mental and physical challenge is demanding and it takes great effort and strength to endure the long ride and finish the race.
The lesson learned is to always give your best effort and never quit.
