If you take the time to order things in your life and prioritize, then you won't have to run faster than you have strength for.
This especially applies in my life to schoolwork. To avoid living in extremes and pulling all nighters and cramming, I can spread my work out and it will be better quality, as well as me being in better physical condition. I will be able to do all the things that are required of me.
D&C 60:13 "... Thou shalt not idle away thy time, neither shalt thou bury thy talent that it may not be known."
To me this means that if you don't waste your time, you can be building skills and talents and they won't be taken from you. I need to use my unstructured, free time to work on the talents I enjoy like songwriting and singing, so that I can be more constructive.
I also watched an hour of Olympics. While watching Evan Lysacek in his gold medal winning performance, I noticed that he seemed to make his jumps and spins look effortless in their landings. He would bend his knees just enough to absorb the shock and smoothly transition out of the move without any faltering. He was perfectly in tune with his body and himself, and knew how to adapt each trick to perform it without mistake. He was comfortable and confident enough to be bold and impress the audience and judges. This can be applied to being a good leader in knowing your self well enough to have confidence and direct others. If you are comfortable with yourself and know how to adapt in different situations of leadership, you will better be able to inspire and lead others
