Why Get Involved?

I once heard that 80% of success is just showing up. That feels pretty true to me, and is in keeping with a lot of what I've learned in the past 37 years.

Showing up. Getting involved... Pretty important.

A question I asked myself today is "What am I showing up for?" What do I have myself involved in?

And then I thought...

How about the other 20%?

Certainly, the other 20% includes "why" I'm showing up, and who I'm being once I show up.

So, if we put it all together, maybe we have a great formula for success:

1. Show up. Get involved.
2. Know why you are showing up.
3. Be someone that truly adds to the moment you've showed up in.
