A Successful Mindset.

Whether you're trying to lose a few pounds, or win a Gold Medal you're working towards a goal.



The road to success is littered with the tombstones of those who began down the same road that you're on, and gave up. One week in there are only a few tombstones, One month in there are even more.

This should inspire you, because you got further than these people. But even so, you're not looking to get further than anyone, you're looking to finish.

When I got into Fitness, I had a simple goal; Work until I'm not so scrawny. I remember starting out, doing a bunch of bicep curls and push-ups with no particular routine. I was pretty astounded how quickly results came. My body was rewarding me for finally using it.


A few months down the road and the results started to slow; the wear and tear and the grind started to set in and I was starting to think about giving up. 

Then I stopped and thought about a guy by the name of Thomas Edison.























In School, young Thomas Edison couldn't excel. By the time the rest of his peers were reading, Thomas was learning to speak. By the time his peers could read and write, he was still trying to read.

This slow progress ended up in his eventual removal from School, his Teacher couldn't have this kid slowing down the betterment of his peers.

Sent home, and not going to School anymore, Edison's Parents sent him off to work. Bad idea, he was fired time and time again.

When Edison turned 21, something changed. He figured out what he wanted to do, and began working tirelessly to do it. He could always fix things, but in addition to fixing them, he was interested in making them better.



After more than 1,000 attempts at making a Light Bulb, in 1879, at the age of 32, the bulb finally lit.

If you're after a fit and healthy body that sets you apart from the average person, I promise you that it isn't going to be easy. Promises of getting fit and losing a ton of weight fast, or without any effort are just lies and scams.

You're going to fall on your ass time in and time out, but if you persist and bounce back up when others quit, you'll accomplish what they didn't, and get further they ever will.




Second by second, you're losing the opportunity to become the person you want to be. Don't waste time being discouraged, stay on your grind and work until you accomplish your goals.

Cheers,
John.
