Preparing to compete 06/25/2010
Today I'm spending my day with my check list. Making sure I have everything in order to have a successful show tomorrow. I have found planning to be so key in these endeavors. It's important to take some time to really think about the event, break it down, decide what resources can contribute to your success and then pack them in the bag! These details are not what will ultimately lead to success, but when all the details are in place, the whole picture will run smoothly. Like I say: "the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts", but the parts are indeed necessary to complete the whole. I also want to add a word about mindset. The power of your mindset is not to be overlooked. It can be changed, and it can determine your happiness. Learn to love the process, love the food and exercise that helps transform your physique, appreciate it for what it does, feel privilaged for having access to such powerful resources. You are the keeper of that trap you call your mouth. You decide what goes in it. If eating right and exercising feel like chores to you then you have a choice, adjust your attitude, or do what makes you happy and accept the results it brings. If you love drinking beer 24/7 then learn to love the beer belly too. Every activity has consequences, which isn't negative, it's just that you have to make a choice. Live for the moment, live for the future, or live for both. It is certainly possible. If you don't believe it then re-think the term POSSIBLE. Many people believed it wasn't "possible" to send a man to the moon. But someone believed it was and that's how it happened. Possibility is an objective term and it can change. The potential of what is possible is farrrrrr greater than we know. I believe it. CommentsLeave a Reply |
