Since 1960, the Paralympic Games have challenged notions of disability, and what began as a movement with just 400 athletes, has grown to 4,400 across 22 sports. Outstanding performances from Paralympians like Natalie du Toit, the first amputee swimmer to compete in both the Olympic and Paralympic Games, and Abdellatif Baka, a visually impaired runner who not only broke the 1500m T13 world record, but ran it 1.71 seconds faster than the Olympic gold medallist that same year, help prove to the world that firsts go beyond the podium. Explore #TheFirstEffect and see the impact firsts at the Olympic and Paralympic Games have had on the world. https://deloi.tt/3WRg6A5

A little Monday motivation on this beautiful Tuesday. 1 of the 5 is mindset... With a growth mindset, you know that you can change over time, and therefore you are more open to reflect, learn and grow from challenges. Make a point of learning from situations to reduce your nerves for the next opportunity. #growthmindset #motivation #Stressmanagment

“The Magic of the Paralympics: Perseverance and Inspiration” The Paralympics are special for several reasons and since I was gifted with living with a paraplegic at an early age, it became a must see on my sports calendar. For full context please read earlier post: ’The Rare Gift of Living with a Paraplegic’. Here are just a few reasons why you might want to watch too: 1. Showcase of Human Resilience: The games highlight the extraordinary achievements of athletes who overcome physical and sometimes severe disabilities. They demonstrate the indomitable will and spirit of the human condition. 2. Promoting Inclusion: The Paralympics play a crucial role in promoting inclusivity and changing perceptions about disability. They offer a platform to challenge stereotypes and advocate for equal opportunities. 3. High Level of Competition: Athletes at the Paralympics compete at incredibly high levels, often breaking records and setting new standards in their sports, just like in the Olympics. 4. Innovation and Adaptation: The sports are often adapted to fit the needs of the athletes, showcasing innovative equipment and modifications that make the sports accessible to those with disabilities. If you are new to the Paralympics and aren’t sure where to start, I recommend a few sports to watch. At the Paris 2024 Paralympics, several athletes delivered exceptional performances and I do highlight a few of these amazing athletes.

Do you know what #Paralympics stands for? I can tell you it 100% is NOT a shortened term for "paraplegic" Olympics. It derives from the Greek preposition “para” (beside or alongside), in other words a parallel #Olympics for people with disabilities. So why the break between the Olympics and the Paralympics?... Why not run it all at once? Fundamentally, it takes a significant amount of logistics to bump out Olympic athletes from 329 events in 32 sports from the village only for Paralympic athletes competing in a staggering 549 events in 22 sports to arrive and get setup! We're only at half time. Let the Games begin! #ImagineWhatWeCanDo

I have sat through hundreds of soccer games over the last 15 years as all four of my children have played both travel and school soccer. I am beyond amazed at the sport of Blind Soccer. The stadium is silenced, no cheering until a goal is scored - a goalie who may have their sight but field players who are blindfolded. Sounds crazy! and Impossible. After coming off of a soccer tournament this past weekend, and catching the news highlights this morning of the Blind Soccer Paralympics, I asked my daughter over breakfast, could you play soccer blind? "No way!" Immediate response received, I am beyond amazed, motivated, and inspired. In a world where we often find the smallest thing to blame for a failure or less than optimal outcome when things don't go our way - the athletes at the paralympics are getting things done. Change I can't to I can, because they are. Situational circumstances do not define your path. Your courage, focus, determination, drive, and grit do. When your head and heart are aligned there are no limitations on what you can accomplish. Lacking motivation today? Check out the athletes competing in the 2024 Paralympics and make the most of your day, your week, your year. Set goals and go get them. #pfizer, #diversity, #equity, #inclusion, #paralympics, #courage, #determination, #inspiration, #equality https://lnkd.in/e_HpRnck
