Mindset

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...

It's about learning to dance in the rain." ~ Vivian Greene

Just Start.

This is a mindset...JUST START!!! 

As we transition from the Thrusters to the Pull Ups, just start. If we can remove that moment of hesitation, we quickly find the first repetitions are always there. We just needed to get going, and not overthink it. This applies to today’s workout, but also, to so much more outside the gym walls.

It is very common for one to await the right moment to start living their life.

Waiting does not push us towards our goals – it does the opposite.

Waiting allows time to slide by, with nothing to show for it… and truth be told, our time here is limited.

There is never the picture perfect time to start, but how often do we find ourselves waiting? For that ideal moment?

We all face “rain”, and even more unnerving at times, “storms”. This is life, and also, uncontrollables. They’re going to happen.

What we do have complete control over is how we will respond to these incidents.

Will we take shelter inside, and await for a better day, or will we enjoy even the harshest of weather, and get outside?

I love the word “dance” in the second half of the quote.

It’s enjoying the rain. Embracing the adversity. And thriving in it.

This is who we are.

Let’s dance in the storm.
