Michael McDowell was the winner of this year’s Daytona 500 NASCAR race after fourteen tries. It took all 200 laps coupled with a last minute pile up. But he finally won by being in position to win.
We have come to understand that the “favorite” does not always win. But in more instances than not, the winner has always been in position top win when the opportunity presented itself.
In this week’s episode Mike reminds us through example that being I position to win should be our number one objective. That is all we can do. Then we simply allow the cards to fall where they may.
Congratulations Michael McDowell. You are the winner.
