Goals

This past week I turned 50. A couple months prior i set a combined lifting weight goal. Through hard work and the encouragement and coaching of my lifting partners and my own personal trainer I accomplished this goal on my birthday. Now in the world of power lifting my combined lift weight total of 1010 lbs is nothing to write home about, considering there are powerlifters posting 1000 lbs  Deadlifts. The actual important part was a couple months ago I wrote a number down on the board, a number that at one point in time I would have never thought I could achieve. Tells you how much I know. Are you writing down your goals? Are they lofty goals? Are they lofty enough that when you look back after YOU ACHIEVE the goal you can look back with this over whelming sense of pride of all the hard work and dedication you put in to accomplish the goal. When times get tough and they will, that sense of pride is something you will be able to lean on and draw from. Now go set some goals and crush them and own them.
