3 ... 2 ... 1 ... Just Do It

You know that feeling in your stomach.  The one that always sets in when you are about to step outside of your comfort zone?
You feel like taking that next step will pop your safety bubble.
That's not good.  There goes your security.  You are complacent with settling for not knowing the unknown or ever experiencing something different.

You fear change.  That feeling in your gut is called procrastination.  You put the Pro in procrastinate.  You make excuses, such as lack of time, support, facilities, or money.  You fear change.

Excellence is not a single feat of greatness.  Your goals will not be reached over night.  I look back, and things I did 5 years ago are paying off now.  Excellence is about doing things exceedingly well and consistently often.  Trust me, I skipped calculus mid terms 5 years ago ... but the point is what I did what that experience and with the sacrifice I made that week.

Take small steps.  Stay comfortable.  Do not over do it.  Raising the bar or the standards makes the goals set unattainable.  It becomes unrealistic to maintain.

Fitness is not something achieved and forgotten.

Rather:

Fitness Goals are set and attained.
Fitness Levels are maintained.

Enhanced Performance.  This is one of the key components to successful performance.  You need to make progress.  You need to reach new peaks of performance and make personal records.

Be sure to compare your accomplishments to the old you.  Do not compare yourself to somebody else.  Not with weight lost, muscle gained, strength increased, or techniques improved, never.  You are not in control of the other person.  Nor are you accountable for their actions.  Remember when you surpass them, maybe they had a bad day.

I Hit a Wall

Don't you just hate hitting that sticking point?  Something that you cannot overcome.  No matter how hard you try.

Solution:  Stop running into the wall

Run over, under, around, or through any obstacle you may face.  But you just need to know how to handle the situation.

Change your attitude.  You can never change the outside world around you.  So, don't get mad over spilt milk, or politics, or the economy, or that annoying coworker.  This reduces the stress in your life.

Adapt your method of approach.  Insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results.  So, do something different and see how well that works for you.

Progress through your days.  Do not be stagnant.  Don't feel like you are taking one step forward and two steps back.  Perfect example:  an hour at the gym followed by a quick stop through McDonald's® drive-thru.

Persevere through setbacks and obstacles.  Life is what happens when you make plans.  But, nothing happens when you do not take action.  Stick it out and commit to your goals.  Stay focused and driven.

Transform into an unstoppable machine of filled with drive.  You can overcome any obstacle or challenge set before you.  Don't avoid the problem; rather seek the solution and rise up.

You can only transform if you have a solid foundation.

Start From Scratch, or better yet, Ground Zero.

The Ground Game is now focusing of quick and effective training programs to maximize your results.  But it all starts with the basics and a solid foundation.

Start from the ground and work your way up.  You have to be able to crawl before you can walk and walk before you can run.

If you're ready to run with it, then give me a call or shoot me an email.
