Another great training today.

As you know Wednesday is my TWB Day: "Train With Brothers Day".

It should also be your goal to find some sort of support in your training.

Some say and I would have to agree, that this is the # 1 reason why so many people stop following their training programs.

There just wasn't any support when it was needed.

It starts by missing one day, then 2, next thing you know you haven't trained in 6 months.

I'm a strong believer in self-motivation, it really has to come from within you but in the beginning stages, having a friend or training partner will do wonders when it comes to developing the habit of training.

As I'm sure you already know, when you're in the middle of your workout you're happy, training feels good and there's no other place you would want to be.

You might find yourself having a moment of weakness BEFORE you start your training.

Learn to recognize that voice and ignore it. Just get started, get moving and everything should get real quiet.

If you've experienced this sudden negative self-talk before training, you're not alone.

We're all basically lazy. Remember that your body will do anything you ask of it, run a marathon, walk on fire, punch through bricks, jump out of a plane, etc.

The difference between someone who sticks with it compared to someone who doesn't just boils down to FOCUS.

Focus on where you want to be, accept what needs to be done, follow through no matter what, and make no excuses.

Master Yourself,

P.S. Through our martial art schools it becomes very easy for our students to find support when they most need it. If you aren't training yet you can get started here. If you live too far from one of our training centers you might want to consider monthly support via our Inner Circle membership.
