178: Day two P90x complete.

May 7th, 2010

Just finished P90x (Lean track) day 2.  Cardio X.

Kempo I like, (I’ve done martial arts most of my life), The Yoga was tough due to my current weight and the strengh reiqured to hold some of the poses.

Great workout,  was able to do all the exerscies (did have to pause a couple time so I could finish my reps).

(Pretty Sore from day 1)

All that you will become will depend on you. by Sifu Chris Smith

December 20th, 2008

A close personal friend of mine wrote something on his myspace a while back and I thought it would be good to share here.

All that you will become will depend on you.

Current mood:  determined

All that we will be is a product of what we are doing and thinking today…  You first have to set your mind to it and really believe in it. If

you dont believe that you can accomplish the goals that you set out to do then you will for sure have a self fulfilling prophecy… Secondly you have to actually try… I know thats hard to believe but it’s amazing to me the people who come to me and want to improve but wont put in the effort necessary to get them where they want to go. Thats like wanting to go to the store but not ever getting in the car to drive there. What have you done today to accomplish what you want in life? If you havent done anything today why not? Do you really want to accomplish it or are you just dreaming about something that will never happen because you are not willing to put in the effort… You can think of any excuse in the book as to why you cant do something trust me i have heard them all when it comes to training. But if you want it bad enough you will find a way to make it happen and not let anything or anyone stop you from it… Ultimately life is what you want it to be and where you are at is because you choose to be there… So get off the couch and change it…

Cause and Effect… Which are you!

December 14th, 2008

Cause and Effect… Which are you!

There are two types of mindsets, cause and effect.

The effect mindset believes that things just happen. They rely on luck, chance, hope, and “destiny”.

The cause mindset believes that a person can cause or prepare for anything they need in life. A cause mindset believes in preparation, determination, goal setting and hard work.

The effect mindset will say I hope I get that new promotion, that new job, a date with that person.

The cause mindset will make their case for that promotion to upper management, prepare for an interview and present themselves with a level head and confidence. They will start a conversation with someone they like to build repport, and if the timing seems right will ask that person out.

Cause is confident, determined, focused, resolute.

Effect is hesitating, wavering, lazy, non committal,

So, which mindset are you.. Do you “Cause” your health and success … or .. are you just going to wait around an see how the world “Effects” you…

My name is Ronald Skelton, and I am Cause. — rant complete ;)
