Who Sets Your Standards
There was an older guy who decided to jog around the local high school football field. As he huffed and puffed along, the team was practicing.
The players soon started running sprints up and down the field. The man told himself, "I’ll just keep running until they quit." So he ran, and they ran, and he ran some more, and they kept running. The old man kept running until he could finally run no longer.
He stopped in exhaustion. One of the players, equally exhausted, approached him and said, "Boy, am I glad you finally stopped, Mister. Coach told us we had to keep running wind sprints as long as the old guy was jogging."
He was watching them; they were watching him. He was letting them set his standard; they allowed him to set theirs.
