1% Better is measuring success by improvements instead of victories and to focus on getting 1% better every day.
I had a sleepless night last week as I was waking up every hour to see how Chris Nikic was doing. If you’ve never heard of Chris, he was born with Down syndrome. In 2020, Chris became the first person with Down syndrome to complete an IRONMAN. Last week, he competed AND FINISHED in the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona, HI (on his 23rd birthday!) He promotes 1% BETTER – to measure your success by improvements instead of victories and to focus on getting 1% better every day. He and his dad have also written a book titled “1% Better: Reaching My Full Potential and How You Can Too”.  As a parent to a child with Down syndrome, I love that Greyson has these amazing humans to look up to and to reassure all of us that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
