Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional

Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional

You wake up, the weather is miserable, you don't feel 100% and the thought of going to the gym or prepping your healthy food is a challenge you are willing to avoid. 

You're now fighting with yourself, you can think of so many pros and cons for everything, yet you try and convince yourself that a rest day is important, despite knowing you already have one planned for the weekend. Procrastinating at its full potential. 

You make yourself a coffee and sit, flicking through Instagram at your friends selfies and those willing to gym or promote fitness. 

You read a quote 'Your body can stand almost anything. It's your mind that you have to convince'.

Suddenly your perception of a 'rest day' had changed. You feel determined to busy yourself in order to reach your full potential. Your motivation has increased significantly and you're becoming more productive as the day progresses. 

You reach for your Pharmafitness supplements and despite being tired you make it to the gym, smashing your personal bests and finding that inner strength forcing its way out. 

Afterwards you feel revitalised and proud, knowing that you are your own worst enemy. Your body can do anything it wants and it's your mind that is stopping you. 

Think about it.
