Over the last couple of weeks, we've talked about
making small changes to get big results. We've talked about changing our
direction one or two degrees and finding an entirely new destination at the end
of our journey.
But often, we find ourselves stymied by the stories
that we are telling ourselves about our history, about what's happened in the
past, the things you could do, things you couldn't do, why you couldn't do it,
whose fault it was, and all of those stories that we tell ourselves around what
has happened to us.
If we want to change our history, we must change the
stories we tell about it. So, if you tell yourself, "I have never been
athletic," "I have never been able to get in shape," and then
you tell yourself, "I'll never be athletic," "I will never be
able to get in shape." Failure isn't fatal, and success isn't permanent.
All those things - failures, successes - are all part of the learning process.
We want to shift the stories we tell ourselves:
"I’ve never been athletic YET," "I haven't found what works for me
in the fitness area." You're going to keep trying until you find something
that does work for you, for your life, for your fitness. That's your journey to
extraordinary; it's not some destination; it's the learning process; it's the
story you tell yourself.
So, let's keep on learning and keep on journeying to the
extraordinary.
