One of the biggest things about sports I miss is daily competition.
Anyone who has played at a high level is used to going out
and competing on a minute-by-minute basis for your job.
Take one minute “off” and your toast.
This is one of the most challenging, yet thrilling facets to the game - any game for that matter.
Even life. Even a board game.
Its one of my most prized asset that I have perfected.
Does this raging spirit continue on way after your last play
is run. You betcha.
For me, its even more challenging competing against yourself.
At the same time, its even more rewarding when you succeed.
Everyone, I mean E V E R Y O N E, can get better at competing with themselves.
And if you happen to have a little competition to challenge you - all the better.
Then you know its them vs me and whoever is going to give their all will win.
You discover who is all talk and who is not. Who wants it more and who does not.
Who is willing to put in the time to succeed and who will sit on the couch watching TV.
Competition is good.
My middle daughter cried yesterday after a game she lost with her
younger sister. I held her and did NOT say- “Its all right.”
Most parents would say, “its just a game- forget about it.”
Not me.
Instead, I asked her if she wanted a REMATCH and would give a little more effort next game.
She said yes.
She was more focused, more poised and determined.
Guess what, she won.
I love to see my daughters get upset over a loss, it means she cares.
When I have coached little boys in gradeschool sports, the ones
who have older brothers are always head and shoulders above
the other kids.
Why?
Cause they have to compete day in and day out with someone most
likely bigger, stronger and faster.
This catapults them above their peers.
This is called deep practice.
And back to competing against yourself. You get better
by doing the little things on a daily basis. You get better
by forming the habits that lead you to a better you.
One of those many things is making time
to move your body.
This is an extreme challenge for some but for others a part
of their daily practice.

You can take it with you as you go on the road this holiday
season and chisel your entire body as well as
your abs in the process.

I still have the extra bonuses available in both programs
listed above. That may be changing in the near future, so move

Okay, talk to you later.
