February 16, 2009“Your ability to suffer will determine your capacity to succeed, which will require sacrifice!”
Break It Down:
Ability to suffer: your mental discipline to push through the tough stuff. A “yes, I can” attitude!
You capacity to succeed: how high do you wish to go; what level of fitness?
Sacrifice: anything worth having will require you to give up something else: time, habits, a bad attitude…
As I work through this statement, several things stick out to me. First, I think most people have not defined what success looks like for themselves; instead, we go through the motions, often allowing others (people, friends, family, etc.) to define it for us. Secondly, it’s up to me to determine how much I am willing to go through; it all rides on my shoulders, not the group or even the trainer/coach. We can make the most lame excuses, often times focused on what someone else did or did not do. Finally, you can apply this statement to any area of your life!
