When was the last time you told yourself something nice? When was the last time you gave yourself a pat on the back? When was the last time you told yourself you can do this no matter what?
Majority of the time we spend telling ourselves “you can’t” or “no way” or “that’s impossible” or “that’s not me” or “they are just lucky” or “when is my break coming”. We say all these remarks to ourselves and think that what we are doing is protecting ourselves but in reality what we are doing is completely holding ourselves back! We like to say it’s because our parents did not push us enough or friends are not supporting us or boss will never think I can do it. In reality it’s all YOU! No one else has the power to keep you from accomplishing your goals at all! You are in 100% control of your success and dreams so silence all the self doubt. You are not protecting yourself, you’re hurting yourself. You are preventing yourself from becoming the greatest version of you.
We know perfection does not exist but we chase it and through it we accomplish excellence. You want to do the uncommon commonly well, that is virtuosity. I say that because we tend to get mad at ourselves if we don’t do something perfect even though that is not possible. Be easy on yourself, congratulate yourself and support yourself. Be your own greatest fan!
The moment you tell yourself you can, you become unstoppable. All of you have proven that and continue to prove that when you walk through the doors. You’ve accomplished so much in this gym not because you convinced yourself you can accomplish certain workout or movement.
Silence yourself doubts and raise the volume on yourself support!
