The Process isn’t Broken...

Don’t claim the process is broken when you haven’t consistently been implementing it.
.
This message is just as much for me as “the gram”, tough words but very true ones.
.
It’s easier to point the finger and blame circumstances for our failures, but when it comes down to it, can we say we have truly committed to doing the work, every step of the way?
.
I’m not implying becoming a machine in the gym and only eating the same 3 foods for weeks on end, but at the end of the day, can you look in the mirror and say that you’ve done everything you could control to move forward?
.
I’ll be the first to admit I haven’t on many occasions.
.
Life, stress and unexpected circumstances have come up, and I’ve allowed them to alter my mindset and drive.
.
That’s only human, it’s completely normal, but that doesn’t mean it should start a repeating cycle of excuses and self-imposed setbacks.
.
Get out of your own way by recognizing that the only way you can realize the goals you’ve set is by owning up when you fall short.
.
I have a long way to go physically, mentally and spiritually to get where I want to be.
.
It’s damn hard every day to stay “motivated” when I’m tired, stretched thin and feeling as if there’s no more to give.
.
What I’ve come to discover, is that in those moments, scraping for just a few more inches shows me what I’m truly capable of, and that the biggest competition I have is myself.
.
Strive to be better than you were yesterday, EVERY DAY!
.
It won’t be smooth sailing, the path to great things never are, but I can promise that the journey will be 100% worth it in the end.
