The Power of Small Wins: Search, Stretch, Savour, Sustain
It’s Leap Year Day. Ever wondered why we need it? Leap Years keep the calendar in alignment with the Earth’s revolutions around the sun. It takes the Earth 365.242 days to circle once around the Sun. If we didn’t add a day on February 29 every 4 years, we would lose six hours every year. After 100 years, the calendar would be off by 24 days.
So what’s the moral of the story? We’re all part of the global revolution. We have a personal rhythm that must synchronize with our environment. We’re either becoming our best, or we’re drifting. It only takes a tiny lag every day to be off by a lot in our lifetime.
