Check out my latest marathon Blog on how I prepare for the marathon Long Beach Marathon 10 Days away!

Conquering one life goal at a time. 🏆 Running a marathon is a stressful event for your body, mind and spirit. But when you put yourself through that willingly, consciously and in a learning atmosphere, you begin to understand how to deal with any stressful situation in a way that does not drain you. First marathon complete. Recovered. Ready to conquer another. #RockandRoll #Sandiego #marathon #championyourrecovery

Saving $8 per day = Almost $3,000 per year Reading 20 pages per day = 30 (250 page) books per year Walking 10,000 steps per day = Approx. 70 marathons per year Never underestimate the power of small habits. 💪🏼

Q: What suggestions do you give for not forgetting information you studied weeks ago? A: Remember that it is better to study for short periods on a regular basis than to try to cram all of your studying into massive study marathons. Or, you could create custom flashcard sets and review them while on your daily walks!

Believe, Fly, Achieve…And Smile One of life's greatest pleasures is finding a passion that makes you feel alive. For me, that passion is skiing. There's nothing like the feeling of standing on top of a mountain, looking down the valley, and dropping down at high speed, trusting in your skills and equipment. I find inspiration in top athletes of this sport. Their self-trust, determination, and resilience in a life-threatening sport is magnetic. The learnings can be easily exported to any aspect of life, both personal and professional. Recently, I came across Katharina Liensberger's helmet inscription, "Believe, Fly, Achieve." These self-explanatory and inspirational words are awesome. But what's even more awesome is how she comes across in every race, winning or not, always with a great smile on her face. This "how" is equally inspirational. So, believe in what you want, fly to get it, achieve your dreams, and smile and enjoy the process. Remember to always trust yourself, stay determined, and be resilient. #selftrust #inspiration

How do YOU manage do stay calm in stressful situations? One of the ways I do is I imagine I'm skiing ⛷️ Imagine you are skiing in a forest, and you go down the wrong path! 😱 Now there a numerous amount of trees you can hit in front of you! what happens when you focus on the trees? You will probably hit one, right? What happens when you focus on the paths between the trees, the escape routes? You will be more likely to escape, right? That's the analogy I use. So to summarise everything: ☀️ Focus on solutions not problems! Also, don't forget to stay positive! Hope you are all having a great week 😄

Beyond Boundaries – My arrival at Longyearbyen (google that) before skiing to the North Pole and setting another world record. Beyond the titles and records, however, what truly fuels my journey is the deeper purpose. It's about pushing limits, defying odds, and inspiring others to embrace their own challenges with unwavering determination. We may not all ski to the North Pole, but we can join an exclusive group by pursuing our passions with purpose. Whether it's conquering personal goals, making a positive impact in our communities, or simply spreading kindness, each of us holds the power to create extraordinary change. Let's continue to push boundaries together, inspire each other, and strive for a world where anything is possible when we lead with purpose. www.seanswarner.com #beyondboundaries #ExplorersGrandSlam #PurposeDrivenLiving #purposedriven #breakingboundaries #skiing
