This Wednesday on ESPN2 at 7pm, the 2011 Crossfit Games will air. I want all of you tune in and witness some of the most amazing athletes in the world. Also, look closely at those who didn't finish or just gave up on the workout. Some will offer excuses, while others will tell you flat out, "I tried my best and I could not do it." Those that quit have yet to identify that which makes them give up. Through failure, those that tried and failed have identified what is holding them back. Although they may try and fail again, I'm sure they will never allow the same issue to affect them ever again. So you might wonder, "what about the winners ?" The winners have failed numerous times and have just about eliminated all of their weaknesses or figured out how to operate around those weaknesses. I use the term invisible bully in reference to my weaknesses. Weaknesses, like a bully, intimidates and usually prevents a person from achieving any level of success. Since most forms of intimidation are of the mental kind, it makes them invisible. I was always taught the best way to beat a bully is to punch them right in mouth. So confront your bully and get on the road to winning. I might even see you at the next Crossfit Games or at least in the gym achieving your PRs.
