~:[CH8 - Day 299]:~ All About Timing

The world was spinning when I went to sleep last night. It was spinning even more when I woke up today. It happened last year around this time and it happened again. I was a little nauseated, but managed to load the car and get out to t he course. It was a hot day and for some reason, the weather always times it to be hottest on the day of this invitational. What does that mean? Dusty conditions and tougher than though conditions. Our athletes battled through it and we had a relatively good performance on the day. For athletes, as it is for us in life, it's all about timing. Do I feel good on this day? Are the conditions right? How prepared am I mentally? When all those combined factors come together, we get the race of a lifetime, but when they're off, it can be the opposite. I guess it happens to us all. Before a big deadline, we want to feel energized and ready to work; during a presentation, we don't want to be ill or distracted and on big events like a wedding, we want all the conditions to fall into place. For sports, career, love and life, it's all about timing. Do we meet the right person at the right time, did we join the right company when we should have, did we just avoid a tragic moment ... the list goes on and on. A single microsecond can change your life and the path that you head down and we can only hope that it all aligns for us. We can assume that it won't all fall into place every time, but we can put our faith that it will when it matters. Day after day, timing plays a role and while we can prepare ourselves as much as possible, it takes a bit of divine intervention to place that final piece of the puzzle down.
