I have noticed that I talk about boot camp all of the time. I can't wait to get to work to share with Susan the newest exercise that Bethany has made me do. I even demonstrate.
I did four real push ups last week. I know, four doesn't sound like many, but I can tell you that it is a BIG deal. I have really come a long way since my first workout.
The hardest thing for me is still the mental part. I feel like people are thinking that I am really slow, Bethany says that it is not true. Whatever negative thing I think, people around me see it differently. They see the determination to finish and the desire to change. She says that people view me as an inspiration and that I encourage them to push harder...how about that?
I have never stopped to look at my journey from someone else's perspective. I have only thought about it being about me. Seems a little selfish. I don't mean to be selfish. I think it may help for me to look at the impact I am making on others. I have decided to live out Camp Gladiator's mission statement. It is:
Our mission is to positively impact the physical fitness and ultimately
the lives of as many people as possible.
the lives of as many people as possible.
What does that mean? That means that I am going to think about others. It means that I am going to encourage others. It means I am going to be bold about sharing the difference that Bethany, through Camp Gladiator, makes in my life. I will help promote cg and encourage others to find the gladiator that lives inside of them.
I will continue to be honest about my journey. It has not been easy. I have struggled, but every struggle will result in success. I am determined to change and I am EXCITED!
Be Blessed!
