Ironman Update# 10

This week of training has reinforced a few key principles.

  • Starting is the hardest part
  • Prepare for success.
  • Do more than u think u need to even when your doing a lot

See this week was a bike week and involved long rides all week. Which is where preparing came into play since I was working a different schedule than norm I kept my training clothes with me and was able to squeeze lunch runs into the mix. I heard a quote that success is where preparation meets opportunity. You control preparation but never opportunity so be ready when it shows up and you find yourself more fulfilled than you could imagine.

This leads me into my second lesson of the week. I learned that all I need to do is to get started and I can finish and be successful. This opened up a good question for me which was Why is it so hard to get me to start ? I haven't answered that yet. However when I do start stopping me can be difficult and combining that with other success traits is not so bad.

Lastly the final thing I learned was that even if your putting a lot into something you may need to give more or change thwe way you give to have greater impact. This was tough to swallow I mean I train 8-15 hrs a week on the low end and learning there were other things I could add to my program for greater success made me feel like I wasn't giving enough but that is not the case.

This week was good God has continued to bless me for my dilegence and pray for gudiance in sharing what I learn in an effort to help anyone who reads it. You can do and go further than you think or know. You are smarter than u think.

Until my next post good luck and god bless.
