I was at a park with the kids this morning thinking what can I put in my blog this week? Its been a light training week & there was nothing of real note to report & then out of nowhere Hayley sent me the following attachment. Its my favourite song. It gets me EVERY time & highlights to me the power of the mind in whatever we do. It will almost certainly guarantee me another 5km when I think Im finished. I often listen to music on my IPod whilst Im out training. It takes my mind off the long slog, the pain, the boredom, the monotony, the fatigue & is a valuable distraction. Whatever helps you - whether it is music, a training partner, breaking down your goal step by step or a self promise that if you put in a good effort you will reward yourself somehow - USE IT!!! Whatever your goal, whatever your passion. Often the sessions where you sit at home struggling to head out the door often turn out to be your best. Motivation starts from within & your mind is the most valuable tool you have. We are all busy with stuff - jobs, family, day to day living & an excuse is not hard to find BUT if you want something as bad as you want to breath you WILL make it happen! youtube/watch?v=k4V3Mo61fJM&sns=em
