Steps To The Summit - Step 15: Patience

Today’s Step to the Summit offers us another valuable lesson that we should all keep in mind when working towards our goal, whether that is summitting Everest or conquering some other literal or figurative mountain. The subject of the video is patience, and Expedition Hanesbrands team leader Jaime Clarke reminds us that in order to reach our goals, we’ll need a healthy dose of it.

Jamie notes that it is very easy to be caught up in the pursuit of our goals and that because of that, we can also burn out in that pursuit. The goal can be all consuming at times, and it is important to take a break, take a look around, and enjoy the journey. It makes the whole experience that much more enjoyable and the completion of the goal that much more satisfying as well.
