Believe

He's the other man in my life.  He's my trainer...and he's amazing.   Tonight's workout was absolutely a killer but I loved every minute of it.   And that is mostly because of Nick.  He infuses humor at just the right time...like when I'm just about ready to give up on an exercise.  He gives me encouragement but busts my chops when he sees incorrect form, or me cheating to make an exercise easier.

More importantly, he's taught me to never give up on myself when the going gets rough.  When I've completed a difficult exercise and said, "I didn't think I could do that,"  he's replied, "I did." 

I know that he's the facilitator and that I'm doing all the work, but when you have someone that believes in you, it can make all the difference in the world.  The difference between just making it through an exercise, or powering through and coming out stronger on the other side. 

And that's the point.   Believe.  Believe in yourself.

So often we fall prey to our own thoughts.  We listen to the voices in our head that say we aren't worthy or deserving.   Self talk.  It's either positive or negative.  Unfortunately, most of the time it's more on the negative side. 

But when someone believes in us, gives us the spark to move forward....to believe in ourselves, the sky is the limit.  

When we Believe, all things are possible.  The negative chatter in our head dissolved, and we believe that the impossible...is possible.

The hurt from most perceived problems in life are really not from the actions of others but from our inner selves and how we internally think about them (whether consciously or, more often, unconsciously) - sort of like sweating that small stuff that I tried so hard to avoid.
