After the Workout - Post 2

Welcome back you as well as myself. This morning was the hard morning to get up. But of course, I planned ahead for that. So last night I set 3 different alarms so I was sure that I would get up at the right time. Oh yeah, I get up at 5am. Now that might seem early, but my mom gets up even before that, so I don't think its strange to get up so early. You never feel like a rebel being the second one to do things. Okay, so to the meat of today's subject. Pushing yourself, that's what I wanted to talk about. When I was at the gym I was listening to one of my favorite podcasts when he started to talk about pushing yourself a little. That's when I found that if I kept doing the same thing I was doing, I was going to get anywhere unless I took myself to the next level. Wow, what a concept. Right away, I increased the weight, and went until I failed. Failed as in my muscles wouldn't push the weight anymore and I knew I would start growing. I know that once you push yourself to do something and your body isn't their yet, your body will grow to get to that point. That alone make me feel good knowing that I'll get to where I want to go. As long as I know where I want to go, I'll get there when I get there. It may take me 1 month or 6, but I will get there. Today I have a list of things I need to do, and I'm going to push myself to get them all done today. When I do that, I'll know what my real power is. And from there, I know I can do more and more.
