Find That Gear

It wasn't enough. Not this time. You gave all you had and you didn't win. You left everything on the line, and you came in not-first at something in your life.

What are you going to do?

The CrossFit athlete Josh Everett says there's another gear and that most people don't know how to get there but champions do.

Are you willing to go harder and find that gear?

Here in the gym, but also in your work, in your relationships, in your life? Or are you just going to settle back and say, "I tried." Many people do, after all.

It's true that most people live lives of quiet desperation. Will you?

So many people want to do more and be more, but they can never quite figure out how to get there.

You can be like them if you want. But I'm guessing you want more.

So be more.

Work harder, work longer, work smarter, and figure out how to find that extra gear.

It's not going to be easy. So what. F*** easy. Easy got you second (or third or fifth or tenth) place. It won't get you first.

You want more? Then go get more.

Find that gear.
