CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Lately I’ve been trying to focus on my mental strength. There’s a difference between your body giving up and your mind giving up. Push yourself, learn the difference. This applies to not only our exercising, but to our daily lives. Its much easier to give up than it is to focus and push through a difficult situation. Work on your mental strength, push yourself.

“When someone tells me no, it doesn’t mean I can’t do it, it simply means I can’t do it with them.”

“Always be yourself and have faith in yourself. Do not go out and look for a successful personality and try to duplicate it.”

“We love being mentally strong, but we hate situations that allow us to put our mental strength to good use.”

“Attitude is 100% under your control.”

“If your mindset is defeated, the results will be the same no matter how often you put up a physical fight.”
