For my COT, I wanted to start with this quote “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right.”
I love this quote. Our mindset effects how we succeed in all areas of our life. Point of fact. Our mindset matters because it shapes the way we view the world and changes good or bad the way in which we engage in our life.
I remember when I was that out of shape sad clown bitch before I started getting control of my life. My lack of self confidence kept me from setting goals and attempting things that may be unknown or might be out of my comfort zone. I told myself I’ll never be able to run another half or full marathon. I’m too old. Too out of shape. I’ll get hurt. Just a bunch of whiney, sad clown bullshit.
Starting in that fall of 2020, I began to go outside of my comfort zone from a fitness standpoint. Setting little goals. Post once a week. Twice a week. EC ½ mile waddling when no one could see my sad clown out of shape ass. I slowly met these small goals and kept setting bigger ones.
This changing my mindset spilled into my personal life. I finally was able to work through and let go of the resentment from all of the crap, emotional abuse that I took from my first Ex wife. Years of therapy but that awesome acceleration came over the winter of 2020/2021. Acceleration at Q-source and I could go on.
I could not have survived last fall when Dad passed and the divorce at the same time without my new mindset.
My challenge to you is never think you can’t do something. Set a little goal and tell yourself that you can do this and f_king do it. Then set another and another. You are a badass and can do so much. Start it today and set a goal in any area of your life.
Aye?
F3 is not a religious organization but we will end in a prayer. You’re welcome to join or take a minute to connect with your sky Q. Are there an intentions we can acknowledge?
