One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
-Tony Robbins
We all go through ups and downs. But when we focus on what we truly want, we will keep moving forward. Even when we don’t feel like it.
It’s those days, when we get up in the morning, and we feel like staying in bed (and making excuses). It’s those days that really make the difference.
It’s those days that we need to really bare down, and remember why we’re doing what we’re doing.
It’s those days that you’ll look back on, and remember, when you’re on the top of the mountain looking down.
It’s those days that that you’ll use to relate to your friends and family, when they’re asking you how to change.
It’s in those struggling days that you become the person that you want to be, and leave the person that you were behind.
Cherish those days when you don’t feel like doing the work, because those are the days that really matter.

This week’s CrossFit workouts
Beth has been struggling to get her CrossFit workouts done. So this is the week of Getting Back to CrossFit!
When you’re a giving person it can be really hard to put yourself first. What a lot of people don’t realize, is that if they don’t take care of themselves, they won’t be able to give their best selves to others.
It’s very important to ALWAYS put your health and nutrition a the number one priority in your life. Without that, you have nothing.
And trust me, the people that you are helping in your life can tell when you’re taking care of yourself.
Be a leader and always show those close to you how to be healthy through your actions. Actions always speak louder than words.
And for those of you who have kids… they are watching and learning from YOU, if you think so or not. So be the person that you want them to be, because they will be.
