A light house has one purpose it’s to shine light and tell you where not to go.
Constantly during conversations with people about their training and health I hear, ‘I can’t do this (for whatever reason- insert excuse here)’ The truth is we spend too much time worrying about what we can’t do, and in reality we never know what we can’t do unless we try. Deciding that you can’t do something or relegating yourself to mediocrity isn’t going to benefit you. It’ll only hinder you.
In reality we need to be more like a laser. Both light houses and lasers use light just in different ways. A laser focuses light to a fine point. It’s a precise location and direction and is very focused, and when this is done correctly, lasers can use light to cut through anything.
Instead of focusing on what you can’t do, like a light house, figure out exactly what you want to accomplish and focus your intensity in a direction and plan to help you achieve it.
This is exactly what we do at CrossFit Bartlett. We guide you and coach you and create a plan in order to focus you in the direction of serious results.
So my question for you is this…
Would you rather be a light house or a laser?
