I was sold a lie
I had this dream built up in my head
& in reality…
It was all BS
Anyone who tells you Sydney doesn’t get cold is a liar
6 god damn degrees this morning
I was doing my morning walk & a call to one of the Build&Blast guys
& I was literally (well almost literally) FREEZING
Ok it was 6am but still… It was damn cold
The thing is though as I’m strolling down Bondi Beach what do I see
At least 5 outdoor bootcamps training
People training in the outdoor gym
& a decent number of guys in the sea swimming
With of course budgie smugglers on the lot of them
First I thought they were mad.. which they definitely are
But then I thought fair play
They’re clearly working towards something
& not going to let a bit of cold stop them
Small obstacles are always going to be in the way
Changing the way people look at you & treat you
& how you feel about yourself
Is difficult in any situation
If you stop at every obstacle you’ll NEVER get started
& NEVER change the reality you have right now
It’s Monday morning now
You’re probably reading this led in bed (or on the toilet ha!)
It’s warm (in the bed at least)
You might be snuggled up to your wife or partner
But your week is about to start
& I guarantee there’s going to be obstacles in your way
You can probably even predict them
Are you going to struggle to eat well as you have meetings
booked all week?
Do you have team drinks or a meal booked after work one night?
Or is it someones birthday in the office which means cakes are
going to be brought in?
I’m sure some of these obstacles will come up this week
But do you have a plan in place for when they do?
When this happens to guys in my groups I problem solve around
their obstacle
Before you fly head first into your week
Take a moment to do the same
What obstacles are in you’re way this week
& what plan have you got in place to solve the problem?
