SHOULD WE EVER EASE OFF THE GAS?
I GOT A GOOD LESSON RACING a while back. The finish was coming up fast, I was in perfect position, there was no way I was going to lose...
... until I did.
It surprised me, then...
... I got really hacked off at myself.
Can you relate?
The kind of anger when I just pedal off and mumble uncouth language under my breath...
... and don't want to be around anybody.
What happened?
So dumb...
- I thought I had it won
- eased off the pedals
- started to relax
... and got passed.
It was so close,
we had the same time.
But, a dramatically different result.
Should we ever ease off just because
- things are going well
- our goals are on track
- the top is within reach
... it's all going according to plan?
Or, should we push through until...
... we've conquered what we set out to accomplish?

Working hard to get to the top we don't typically need a jacket,
that's for the way down while we revel in our glory.
