I choose this Day
I choose this day to try harder than ever before. I choose this day to lift more than ever before. I choose this day to help others do the best they can do. That is a core principle in the growth of bodybuilding. Do your best otherwise it is a waste of time. Like feeling mentally bad, worried, etc. What good does that ever do to help the situation? We are not victims of our surroundings but creators of a lifestyle. Why wait for a good day or for good things to happen? Plan for them, work for them and help others do the same. Weight lifting may have a large ego component to it but for me I like the admiration I get from others. Women especially help this old man feel that I am desireable as a specimen. I don’t flirt with women as I never felt that was right but when I receive a compliment on my hard work I beam like a school child being the last one standing during a spelling bee. It means to me I am still acceptable genetic material. I guess it is one way to prepare myself for the mid-life crisis many of us will go through. So today is shoulders and back at the gym. Not one of my favorites but it keeps everything in balance.
