Today I decided to try out one of last year’s Open workouts. Going into it I had no idea what my score was.
One thing I know for sure is that I wasn’t as fatigued as last year upon completion.
I still had too much left in the tank. After checking my score against last years’ it all made sense.
I know there may very well be other factors that played a role today.
One thing is for sure, my head just wasn’t in it. And that made all the difference.
How many times have you said to yourself, “I suck at that” or “it’s going to take me forever to get through that movement”. STOP! Once you’ve spoken those words in your head or out loud, you’ve set yourself up to FAIL. Conversely, have you ever just said “I’m just going do it” or “I’m going for all those reps unbroken”. And what happens? YOU SUCCEED.
So with 16 days before the Open I thought I’d leave you with this.
“Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.”
-Mahatma Gandhi
