Pacing
Sometimes you do not know the skills that are inherent within you until you are tested.
One of my skills is the skill of pacing.
I know how to pace myself at the start of a marathon to be sure I finish the marathon. I only learned this by running many marathons and ultra marathons.
Often these types of inherent capabilities are overlooked as irrelevant.
Doing anything that requires endurance needs pacing, be that building a business designed for the long term, running a marathon, or tending a garden.
To pace well is to begin more slowly than you might like, tuning in to your capacity to keep going long after most people have quit.
