Are you ready to Compete?
Are you going to take that leap this year to get on stage? What’s going to make this year better than all the other years past? You should have outlined some outstanding achievements that you will be determined to accomplish before the year is over.
Maybe you did not achieve all you set out to do last year? If, so, ask yourself this, did you go all out? Did you go all out with your training and diet? What about your posing routine? Did you practice your mandatories every day – weeks out from the show or did you do everything last minute? Well, if you didn’t do well, then it’s time to make this year, the year you put it all together.
We all have choices in life. You can admit defeat and never compete again or pick yourself up, dust yourself off, swallow your pride, do it again with a little attitude and change. This year you’ll pack-on more thick dense muscle, bring-up those lagging body parts and introduce shape into those flat arms. Change your training. Try another style of training. Add an extra protein shake per day. Let me help you with something. Once, I had a chance to watch football players up close hitting on the practice field and now I understand why those guys view playing football like the game of life. You get knocked down, you get up and do it again, but you try harder and do it better. Get it? So, to achieve and believe, whether your goals are orientated towards bodybuilding, fitness, figure or other sports competition or maybe your personal workouts then nothing-quite works like persistence, determination, self-belief, and motivation.
PERSISTENCE
Persistence is what separates the winner from the quitter. Being persistent will make you stronger then any iron pumping exercise could. Stronger willed that is, or in my words ‘stubborn.’ If first you don’t succeed Try, try again! That’s what being persistent is all about. If it takes you three or ten tries to win the Nationals then that’s what it takes. Have a little tenacity in your day-to-day actions.
DETERMINATION
Determination is the defining factor of being persistent. Resolve! What do I mean by that? Well, having determination in your bodybuilding goals only confirms a firm intention, or a firmness of purpose. You should have resolve in your purpose to become a champion! If you break down the word determination you come up with ‘determined’ which means having ones mind made up. So, have a firm purpose of mind, and get into the gym with determination to over come the heavy iron pumping that you must endure.
SELF-BELIEF
No I don’t mean being self-centered or cocky. But, belief in ones self, that you can obtain and accomplish certain things. A belief in ones self to accomplish goals, too accomplish the things you set out to do in life. Remember that there is always someone bigger or better, but that doesn’t mean you cannot believe in the person you are and your abilities.
MOTIVATION
You can still get everything done, and still not accomplish your goals. But, what did you learn? You just received a tremendous amount of knowledge for the next competition. Defeat brings knowledge more so than victory. So, outline your goals for the upcoming season, especially if you haven’t done that yet. Write them down on a piece of paper in ink. There are short-term goals and long-term goals. Short-term goals can be as little as a week, and up to 3 months, unless you’re like some people who look at short-term goals as one year at a time. Long-term goals are usually 6 month and up to a year. Now, write down your goals right now before it’s too late.
We all control our own destiny. So, seize the moment and don’t forget to add persistence, determination, self-belief, and motivation to your bodybuilding mentality.
