We can learn a lot from Diana.🦈
Diana Nyad was the first to swim from Cuba to Florida without a shark cage, she did this at the age of 64.
There were Four previous failed attempts, her first attempt was in her 20s.
The waters are home to box jellyfish and sharks, and not to mention the less-than-ideal currents.🌊
But Nyed was determined to try again.
She was determined to succeed.
And she did.
"One is we should never ever give up. Two is you are never too old to chase your dreams. And three is it looks like a solitary sport but it takes a team," – Nyad.
And that can be said for a lot of things in life.
Including the job search and the hiring process.
If you know what your dream career is, don’t give up just because it doesn’t happen right away.
And if you’re searching for the right candidate, don’t settle on your first or second attempt. Great things take time.
And just like Nyad says, it might look solitary, but it takes a team, so don’t be afraid to ask for help.
I love hearing her story, because she knew what she wanted, and she wasn't going to give up after a few fails.
She didn't give up.
And I just find that inspirational, don't you?
