Every time I hit the weights I feel like I can move mountains and shake up the world!
I ask myself, “What's going to stop me? Who is going to stop me?”
Then it occurs to me, while I am trying to Rock the house as the Lone Ranger, there are thousands, maybe even millions of other people around the world thinking the same thing I am.
To be the best I can be!
To wake up each day and try to look better than yesterday. Pushing myself to limits I never thought I could and focusing on being a “Better” me!
However, there is always room for Seeds of Self Doubt.
It creeps into my head between sets and reps. They sneak up on me when I feel sluggish and it's cold outside or I'm aching all over. I have many things creeping into my mind at times, trying to side track me from my mission.
Self doubt can be a painful existence to be sure.
In the long run, somewhere deep down, where words can't even find the light of day to explain it, I know I have a job to do above everything else if I am to be truly happy with my existence here on planet Earth. My Pride will have to pull me through.
My Pride is what gets me through the day.
I take Pride in the fact that not everyone can do what I do.
I take Pride in knowing that the more I do, the better I will get!
The more weight, more Food, more Focus, more Intensity, more, Hunger, more, More, MORE! I need More of everything to be the best of everything!
It becomes an addiction. The strength, the size, the satisfaction.
My Pride will win the day when all else fails.
Add in some Passion and you have a lethal dose of ENERGY when it comes time for training! I become an Unstoppable Force of Nature that oozes confidence!
I need my Pride & my Passion for breakfast each day but I need More of Everything to get me through the day!
My Iron warriors out there no what I mean when I say, “MORE!”
More Chicken, More Steak, More Eggs, More Weight, More Reps, More Sets, More, More, MORE!
Sure, anyone can lift weights and look better than they did last month or even better than they did yesterday but how many of them can hang with this path of life day in and day out, month after month, year after year, Decade after DECADE?
Pride baby!
You have to love what you do like it is nobody's business! Each morning of every week, I get up and handle my business as if there will be no tomorrow. If tomorrow never came the one thing I'd be certain of is that I pursued my Passion with Pride and at the end of the day let it RIDE!
Sooner or later your going to have to ask yourself, “ Am I getting from my training what I am putting into it? Or am getting just enough to get by and wishing I had done more?
The difference in these two scenarios is PRIDE!
Making the commitment to put All that you have into what you are doing, regardless of the outcome. Laying it All on the line each time out of the box, to be the best you can be from Rep to Rep and Set to Set.
Why settle for anything less?
In Strength & Honor!
Peace,
Shawn Ray
