We underestimate what our bodies can do when hardships break our spirit.
I am not the athletic type, and although I did do some training before the climb, in hindsight it wasn't enough. There were a few moments during the actual climb when I felt like giving up. I managed to push through, and I realised that my body could take it. Had I given up, it wouldn't have been because of my body. It would have been because of my (lack of) will power.
In business and in leadership, we go through difficult times and we question our own capabilities and resilience. We sometimes underestimate what we are capable of. Clear the useless doubts. Focus on the next step. And the next. And the next. You will find that you are stronger than you think.
