Mr. Aries’s BodyBlog

Everyone gets his/her shot at success. Sometimes it comes early; sometimes it comes late. I dont’ know about you, but that’s the reason I train. Not for a big bench press, not for bragging rights in front of the gym rats, and not for the beach bunnies circling that indoor track. I train, because when that day comes, I will let nothing slip through the cracks.

If it takes a lifetime, then I will train for a lifetime. I have a lifetime to train. A lifetime of training is why my success will be earned, not handed. Training wheels, let me keep them.

Change is good. If not, why would we goto the gym at all? We go, indeed, to bring about change. We should, and do, embrace it. Change brings hope. Change is what brings us the infinite potential of tomorrow and the undeniable beauty of today.

I feel blessed that I am given the opportunity to goto the gym everyday. If I make progress, I take all the credit. If I fail, I get all the blame. How special is that? We are rewarded or punished purely as a result of our own doing. How many other circumstances in life gives us the chance to TRULY prove our abilities on our own without outside intervention/interference?
