EPISODE 223

When I worked as a professional software engineer for AT&T Bell Laboratories, I was a member of the AT&T corporate running team.

At that time, one component of AT&T Bell Laboratories was located in Naperville, Illinois, which is a city about 30 miles south west of the city of Chicago.

The AT&T running team was very competitive at that time and there were a couple of runners who could run about 4:10 mile.  On my best days, I was running about a minute plus slower, or could run about a 5:30 pace per mile at that time.

On May 19, 1988, I ran a 6K (3.7 miles) running road race, the Spring Fling Run, sponsored by AT&T Bell Labs at the Hickory Ridge Conference Center in Lisle, Illinois, which is a city near Naperville.

I had a winning strategy in mind for the race. 

The strategy I used to win that race made me think about developing a winning strategy in life and in business.

How do You develop a winning strategy in your own life?

Taking the time to develop and execute your own winning strategy allows you to create a significant positive impact in your own life.
