Contents

I m not a natural on a bicycle. I have the distinct memory of riding my bike straight into a car when I was a girl. Im thankful it was parkedI just didnt know how to turn! Years later, when I began dating James, I quickly learned how much he loved bike riding. He told me, When Im riding my bike and having the time of my life, I want to look over my shoulder and see you. I dont want to see my buddies. I want to see you .

That was enough for my little lovebird heart. I would become a cyclist. We went to the bicycle store to pick out a mountain bike for me. That was the fun part. But then I actually had to ride the thing. The first time I went on a trail, I had a hard time just transitioning from the parking lot to the trail. You had to steer between wooden posts, and I was terrified that I would run my bike right into one of the posts.

As I stared at those wooden posts in fear, they were getting closer and closer, and suddenly James yelled Stop! It was time for a coaching lesson. He told me five simple words that have served me well on the bike and in life.

You go where you focus.

He told me that if I was focused on the wooden posts, I would definitely steer myself right into them. But if I focused on the path between the wooden posts, I would safely steer my bike right onto the path.
