Plus Final Thoughts On The Mr. Health And Fitness Competition
When I go into a Competition, My Goal is to Win.
Often though, I am faced with the Reality that I may not be the Fastest, Strongest, or Smartest.
There is Nothing Wrong with Losing if you put 100% of your Effort into it.
As US Long-Distance Runner Steve Prefontaine once put it…
“To give anything less than your best, is to sacrifice the gift.”
I can Happily Accept a Loss, and even be Mentally Prepared for it (A Stoic Technique to Accept What is Outside Our Control), as Long as I do Everything in my Power to Be My Best.
What I may lack in Skill, I know that I make up for
- In Tenacity
- In Persistence
- In the Willingness to Push My Body to Natural Extremes to Show What “We” as Humans are Capable Of
- In the Audacity to Show Up
- In the Desire to Change the World
Which is what I did.
My Goal was to show what “We” can Accomplish when We come together.
