John's solo additions about the book Great by Choice

In the book it’s two teams race across the south pole but John talked about a simpler example walk across the United States:

Walking 20 miles every single day — rain or shine

VS

Walking for 40-50 miles in good weather — fewer miles on bad days

Other points from the book:

Learn to deal with uncertainty
Productivity Paranoid
Durable and specific procedures
It’s not luck and chance – it’s hard work and ambition
You Action: Define your next march

Some things to think about:

What are your performance markers, are they clear
What are your Self-imposed constraints
Is it in your control
What’s the proper time-frame — long enough to manage, yet short enough to track progress
So – little different episode but Jolene is fantastic and keeping the podcast going when John's out so it was his turn to walk the 20 miles
