Stand Up With the Weight

Life goes on.Change happens.Who you were yesterday may not be who you are today.That's called growth. And it's a good thing.So many times in life, we get scared of what could be, instead of being thrilled by what could be. We cling to our comfort zone. We worry about change. And that's certainly understandable; but, really, what good does worry do?Change is adding weight to the bar. Seeing what you can handle. And then assessing the outcome.Like when you put more weight on the bar in your clean. Put ten more pounds on that lift and you might end up on your ass. Might. Or you might stand up with it.So don't focus on your ass. Don't focus on how bad the lift could go, on how bad things could be. Instead, think about how good it feels when you stand up, on your own, with a heavy load on your shoulders. You did this. No one else. Be proud.Stop thinking about what was, and start thinking about what could be. Life changes every day. Set your feet, get your grip right, breathe in, and pull. And stand up with the weight.
