Adversity

Everyday we are faced with adversity. Everyday adversity looks us in the eyes and say “not today”. There are plenty of times when we don’t win. There are many times when adversity is right. But there are many other times when adversity can’t look us in the eye. And we won. I believe success isn’t a one size fits all. I believe through adversity and the many times we lose, we learn how to win. We learn how to look adversity in the eyes and say “not today”. But it starts within us. It starts with just that one belief that today is not the day. We all must embrace failure, losses and the things that make us uncomfortable. To seize the day, to seize the moment, to seize every opportunity we must learn to lose. We must learn to fail. In order to learn how to win. Winning starts when we learn that failure is part of the process. That failure is the course we must take to reach success. But as we climb this ladder or walk this path towards success, adversity will continue to tell us “not today”. So make this your day, so that everyday is your day!

Energy

 Energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is transferred or changed from one form to another. In essence, it is a power that is derived from the strength and vitality to a degree, from the utilization of physical and mental activity. Since energy is transferred why do some people possess “Great Energy” and most a negative energy? If energy is transferred from one form to another why aren’t we all positive by nature? These questions are constantly asked daily. To find the answer, we must first look within. If we all possess the energy required to reach Nirvana, the world may perhaps be a better place. The energy we possess even if we don’t intend it to be, can be absorbed by another. But life can present challenges which makes our journey difficult. However, you have the power to achieve your sense of being through the utilization from the strength and vitality of physical and mental activity. This means what you think, how you think it, and why you think it is the power we must ...

What is fitness!?

What is fitness? Do you define fitness as a state of being!? How you feel? Or how you should look? Fitness perhaps can be defined as the mental dexterity one may possess. Fitness is by definition the state of being physically, emotionally and mentally healthy. These three aspects are important for overall well being. However, these three aren’t usually aligned with one another properly. I say this, because we live in a world where the physical outweighs the emotional and mental. We strive so hard to achieve this physical standard set by someone, society etc that we negate the emotional and mental strength we need. Put it this way, when you scroll through social media and see the physical body being displayed over and over again. You come to realize you cannot live up to the standard they set. So you belittle your own existence. The emotional says “I’m sad I don’t look like this, probably why no one likes being around me”. The mental says “I suck, there’s no way I can look like that”. T...

Inspiration

Inspiration(n)- the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative. To be inspired is to be mentally stimulated. To be inspired, is to be passionate about an idea, thought or belief. Inspiration therefore is the emotion that drives us to achieve our ultimate successes. Who/ what inspires you to achieve your ultimate success? Is it inner motivation? Or is it the dream to be free? The dream to be free begins with a thought, an idea and belief in something. It is tough sometimes to believe in something and continue to believe in it because of the inspiration achieve it. The road that begin with just a thought can quickly fade with another thought that it cannot be achieved. Then inspiration fades. Like the closing credits of a movie. But as quickly it can fade; it can also quickly grow into something that motivates others. Others who are inspired because you never stopped believing in yourself, in your dreams in that first moment you felt...
