    Breaking Down Walls

    Many of us run into them. To tired from work or lifes challenges, stress, plateau from growing etc...

    How do you deal with it, what's motivates you to push the wall down and overcome a stoppage in your ultimate goals?

    For me its the alpha male mentality that always chases me and a knowing I have reached another limitation that has to be broken.

      Have a picture of what I looked like a year and half ago. Keep it on my mirror at home for the times when my bed feels to good to get out of.

          Having the love and support of family and brothers like I have here and in life to help stay on track realizing that all of us are going through some transition, life challenge, finances, something that takes us out of our routine, maybe takes us to lows where we need to be picked up...I am blessed to have this, as well as my girls...that is what keeps me moving forward, gives me the strength, and reminds me that this too shall pass, and that what hasn't killed us has made us stronger for the next challenge...evolving, and we have each other here to give some comfort...sorry, this is in the weight lifting forum, but it all ties together!!!

            Re: Breaking Down Walls

            Knowing who I am and what I'm suppose to be doing in life. The reality is that each of us are so diverse and different, how we're wired, what makes us feel alive. Identifying how I'm wired and what makes me tick is sort of like the road I need to make sure I'm traveling on. What I'm suppose to be doing in life is sort of like the destination the road is leading to. Keeping those 2 things in line and being focused and intentional about them allows for the walls to come down. And as MA said, friends are a HUGE deal. I always have that person in my life, sometimes friendships move on and you find a new person, but always making sure you have that person and a group of close friends.

                Don't apologize man. The best motivation imo doesn't come from videos or workout advice but from those who making lemonade out of life's lemons. How you, I or you and I help each other take another step to our goals is the best motivation.

                  I too have been having a ruff time since last December. But thank God for my workouts. I tell you that and all of my wonderful bros here is what keeps it all together for me.

                    Knowing who you is very key. I see and meet a lot of people who everyday try to figure or create who they are. Never happy and never has the ability to stick with anything. Those who do know who they are, will always prevail threw any hell they are walking through.

                    You got this bro. Life has seemingly been weighing many folks on the boards down as of late. However just reading one anothers post of reality and their ability to keep on rocking always motivates me!

                        Right you are, nothing like taking your problems and pounding away at 'em with some iron. Thats why I try to hit the gym earlier in the day; the rest of my day is much more zen... Although I've worked out at 2 am to get my workout in (benefits of joining a 24-hr gym). Although nothing really gets me motivated like seeing those little improvements in the mirror...

                          I HATE lifting in the morning. When I used to do that I noticed I would get hurt easier and just wasnt as strong. I need to give my muscles and body some time to wake up and loosen up before I hit up the gym.
