Resolution season is upon us. The runners and walkers around me were at the start of something new. A focus they had chosen. A challenge they decided to take on. As my excitement and pride for them grew, I realized how backwards our thinking around resolutions really is. If we only run for four days, we failed. If we cut out caffeine for a week, we failed. If we don’t complete a full 365-day challenge, that's failure?

Great leaders don’t do it all. They recognize where they shine and intentionally surround themselves with people who shine in other spaces. A balanced team doesn’t mean balanced individuals—it means each person contributes their best and trusts others to fill the gaps.
