We make ourselves stronger.

About a week ago someone said a quote that really stuck with me. So much so that I wrote it on the quote chalk board in the gym. The quote reads "We make ourselves strong so we can dig ourselves out of the holes we create". So many times through life we find ourselves in a hole or a rut for that matter. We often don't know where to find the strength to get ourselves out of these situations and then we get used to them and become complacent and stay stuck. We all know what this is like and I would be willing to bet all of us hate this feeling with a passion. This is why you have decided to make your self strong. Being physically strong will and always does flow through the rest of your being. It helps you become mentally and emotionally strong and allows you to handle the challenges that life deals you and there are a ton of challenges we go through every single day. A lot of you have significant people in your life that rely on you to handle these challenges and quite honestly it's not OK if you don't handle these challenges. So keep on making yourself strong every day, weather it is by a little each day or a ton some days. You deserve to have this wonderful feeling that you, some way, some how will work your butt off through any challenges life throws at you, because you are strong and you work at it every day.
