Good article, inspiring. I really liked the example the article was closed with. If it was the red shed you know we would have went all out cow tipping!
That’s right, Dale!
It’s all in the hips…
haha, right on.
Don’t think I could “clean” a cow yet…
maybe all in time! It’s just like flipping a tire, right?
If your expectations are always those of someone content to live without physical challenge, then when it comes time for mental, moral, or emotional challenge, you fail to meet it because you are out of practice.
Meeting and overcoming obstacles are skills that can be honed, as opposed to talents with which we are born.
The best way to prepare for the inevitable shit that life occasionally hands us all is to live in a way that prepares you for it. If
you can treat personal tragedy like a heavy set of twenty squats, you’ll do better than someone who has never met any challenge.
Intentionally placing yourself in the
position of having to complete a task when you don’t know if you can is the single best way of preparing to be in that position unintentionally. And that, my friends, is
the way your training should be approached, so that you get more out of it than just “wellness.”
And…DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE COWS!
