Limiting Beliefs

If there was ever one main response from those around us that comes with competing in bodybuilding or figure competitions, or even just getting ourselves into fantastic shape  is the "Oh i could never do that". I have to admit it is a pet hate..
But being aware of these negative notions is crucial for continuing to move forward and achieve what you may want in life. Think about it for a moment or so... It happens constantly. I would never be able to lift that much, marathon.. are you kidding me i could never run 42km, earn 70k a year...i wish! Go a week without having a drink.. no chance.

Limiting Beliefs!!

It is quite easy even for the best of us to fall into the practice of setting limits on what we can and cannot achieve. Especially in todays society where the lazy are rewarded and propped up by what ever means possible, and the hard workers that remain get penalised at every opportunity. But kick the limits on what you want to achieve! Wether it be training goals, life goals, work goals. If you want to be the most conditioned anyone has ever seen then go for it, if your working at the bottom of a company and dream of being the boss earning 100k a year then go for it! Removing limits puts you on the track to achieving your ultimate goals. Reminding yourself of these sets the path and you will start to do the things it takes to reach these possibilities. You will become more aware of what you need to do to accomplish them.

Hard work and personal sacrifice is sure to follow you on your path to achievement. Times of doubt and uncertainty will creep in...but by reminding yourself of the reward..of that goal... will push you through and make the achievement so much more satisfying, and all the sacrifice and hard work will seem obsolete!

Well i hope that rant made some sense.. but till next time aim high, think big, go for the seemingly unattainable and have some fun doing so!
