Rigor is a concept that's important in all aspects of our lives. In life, it's easy to fall into patterns of behavior that feel comfortable and familiar. But if we're not careful, those patterns can limit our growth and prevent us from reaching our full potential. Rigor means setting high standards for ourselves and holding ourselves accountable for meeting them. It means being disciplined, focused, and committed to achieving our goals.
