Dan Lanning, the University of Oregon’s football coach has a message that anybody can use. He’s been an inspiring guy to watch here in Eugene and not just because his teams have been winning and winning a lot.

“Doubt doesn’t creep in when you know yourself and your weaknesses, like, OK, I’ve got to get better at this. It’s not doubt, it’s reassurance, it’s this is something I have to improve.”

Striving for improvement whether it’s healthy eating or better writing or taking a moment to tidy up more. I don’t need to feel bad when I miss the various marks I set for myself. I just need to keep working on making progress.
