See more » Image via Wikipedia The magic of wellness in tune practices were on glorious display on a chilly afternoon in Washington DC this past Sunday. Though the example came from unexpected quarters - it underscores a cardinal life lesson. As the count-down continues, the New York Times headlined Monday morning with a story about the forthcoming presidential inaugural rehearsal. At that occassion a Barack Obama look-alike was sworn in as the nation’s 44th president at the United States Capitol. According to the report, a tall black male delivered a brief inaugural address and then headed an inaugural parade followed by a mock 1st lady and daughters of the President proceeded to his new home, the White House. Passers-by braved the cold to take in the foreplay to next weeks momentous moment. As New Times Mark Lebrovich reported - though the stand-ins for Barack Obama and Michele Obama were Staff Sgt. Derrick Brooks of the Army and Petty Officer First Class LaSean McCray of the Navy , “still, from a distance, it had the look and feel of the real thing. Amplified speeches and announcements could be heard several blocks away, honor guards and color guards and processions of dignitaries (or stand-ins thereof) assembled along the western end of the Capitol. The (actual) Marine Band showed up to play “Hail to the Chief” to honor the (fake) new president”. What’s this got to do with our personal and business agendas and wellness in tune practices for 2009? Well - everything. We can take a leave out of the book of men and women of the armed & police services as well as firefighters. We can specifically learn from them with regard to their disciplined approach to planning and routine daily rehearsals or wellness in tune practices in preparation of important future events. Such rehearsals help them integrate, the drill, anticipate and automate responses to any possible imaginable future scenarios - in short to make them as ready as humanly possible for the big occassion. How many of us apply that kind of discipline to our prospective job interviews, to our planned sales presentations, to our new business ventures or to our lives? The truth as one famous coach mentioned to his team is, that “it ain’t enough to have talent. Everyone has talent for something even if they may not not know what exactly it is.” The magic of Magic Johnson, Jimmy Connors, Tiger Woods and basket ball legend Michael Jordan lies in the fact that like the men and women of the armed services, they invested time in exercising, rehearsing and honing their skills to perfection to be ready for lives big moments. According to the coach it took them 1,000 hours of doing, training and exercise to learn their skill. It took them another 2,000 hours of doing, training and exercise to become experts of their craft. Finally, it took them another 3,000 hours of doing, training and exercise to be amongst the best plying their respective crafts. Certainly having talent helps but their is no substitute for that hard daily grind to master the basics. As Rick Warren, Barack Obama’s choice of spiritual leader to lead the inaugural invocation states “find out and be driven by your intrinsic life purpose”, your God-given talent and pursue it for – in the words of the Chinese saying – “ if you do things you really love and are passionate about, you will not feel it as work”. You will do, train and exercise your life purpose every single day for the love of it and you will not notice the 1,000, 2,000 and 3,000 hours fly by. All great champions know that public recognition automatically follows magic flawless executions. However the luck associated with such flawless execution are the logical natural rewards flowing disciplined routine wellness in tune practice of the things you love. See less »
