I use to think that lifting heavy and eating a lot of food meant I was progressing. I was in my own world...seeing things from my point of view. And yes, that mind set worked for me for awhile, but my physical growth paled in comparison to my internal growth. Now I see things with more clarity- I am not distracted by trying to win a show or enticed to get as lean as possible. I dont value having bigger shoulders than the woman standing next to me... its a race I am not interested in. Im here for the life long journey...not the finish line. I would rather progress in many aspects ...not just my muscle growth. I want to have the energy to run, play with my kids, and lift weights. I may not win a trophy on the stage because of that, but I am okay with it. I am working hard to win at something much greater... I want to win in life.
