~:[CH8 - Day 355]:~ The Load Off My Shoulders

I often asked how I do so much. As I woke up in the early AM, I was at school before 7am and we spent the entire day working on campus. We picked up every speck of trash from our event and were done by 4pm, leaving a bit of time to go home and get ready for the captains dinner. This is exactly how I am able to do what I am able to; good support and leadership around me. The stronger people you have in your inner circle, the more balanced your workload and the more you can focus on what you need to do. From parents and supporters, alumni, captains and the athletes/students, the more responsibility they can learn to take on by themselves, the less worries I have to have. Everyone today took their role, most of them knew what they needed to do and for those that didn't, today they learned. It takes time for everyone to learn the systems and routines, but when you set them in place, you don't have to always have a presence, rather, you allow those people around you show that they can take the initiative and that they are responsible to carry out those tasks. With leaders around me, it takes a load off my shoulders and makes a great amount of tasks doable  and that's how you do as much as you can in the amount of time we are given. Create a system people can believe in and work in and you'll find that load being taken off your shoulders. I am so grateful to have a wonderful group of people around me who give so much of themselves and who truly deserve the credit for everything that I am able to do.
