This has been a big topic lately in different conversations with people. I am no different than the average person and I used to make excuses as to why I didn’t want to workout or eat healthy. I was just being lazy.
From the start of my journey I vowed not to give excuses, especially to Dante. I was going in giving nothing but 100%. This is not just a personal investment, but a financial one too. I don’t have the luxury of wasting his or my time. I keep trying till I am able to do it, just like I do with my running. I am capable of doing anything I set my mind to, just like I do with my business, I should have the same mindset with my health too. Its all mind over matter, and we are all capable of doing things - our athletic level, age, injury, etc. should not be an issue.
Some people live their lives filled with excuses, whether they use their age, athletic ability, time or other people from holding them back. Non of us can live a full life if we are constantly giving excuses, when we all know its just because they are lazy. Admittance is the first step - If you don’t try, how will you ever know the amazing things you are capable of doing. If you tried just a little harder each time, just think of the results you will have! People set themselves up for failure. They cannot blame anyone but themselves when that happens because we all have control of our lives and the choices we make and the food we shove in our mouths.
Last Saturday I did a Mud Run Training, there about 16 of us out there. All different age levels from 20’s to 60’s as well as athletic abilities, and some with injuries as well. We all did the same exact workout. Some finished quickly and some didn’t, but no one was looked at any different. You just kept pushing through till you were finished.
