Nobody succeeds alone

Let me start the story at yesterday night, where I spent a couple of hours planning a compound workout plan as well as a calorie deficit diet, I went to bed feeling really pumped and excited as today cutting began. I woke up this morning however, feeling the least bit motivated to do anything. I wanted to make my eggs breakfast but didnt wanna do it, I wanted to get ready for the gym but didnt want to do it, all in all I just wanted to roll back into my bed and sleep again. Then, this picture flashed across my mind, so I just left the house. Getting to the gym was nothing different, as I felt just as unenthusiastic about anything.

But as soon as I go to the gym, I saw these two guys from my college, clocking time in and hard at work. Seeing that there are others out there reaching towards the same goals as I was, I felt my spirits slowly being lifted.

After speaking to them, I was all pumped and ready when I thought of just weighing to get a weight before I start the entire cutting just to be able to see the difference once its dont, low and behold for all I know this was the results that came out! 13% body fat?! There was never once in this lifetime where my body had that little fat ever! I was even more excited. The event that occured after this blew me away. 

So, after a warm up session, I started working on my squats cross push up exercise and when it was done, Justin the dude on the right in the picture above, came up to me and gave me a banana saying hey man, this will give you some energy to finish your workout.

 I was mind blown by his kindness that he would do such an act. I managed to finish all my exercise, ate his banana did 10mins of high intensity cardio and left the gym. To think that this little gesture of his would have given me that vital motivation to keep going, inspired me to write this post.

What I am trying to get at is nobody succeeds alone. We were never created to be that way or function in such a manner. We need each other, to push us, to support us, to tell us that we can get up and try again although we've failed for the upteee-th time. We need each other. I personally train alone in the gym as my times are pretty unpredictable but just to have these guys from college there in the gym, gives me the courage to keep striving forward knowing that I am not the only one that wants this, that there are others out there working towards the same goal, and if you are reading this and no matter what it is in life that you are trying to achieve, look for people that are going to believe in you, people that are going to help you plan and most importantly people that love you enough to tell you, hey...you are going in the wrong direction. Because in the end of the day, no matter how far you go or how much you achieve, non of it is ever going to be worth it if you don't have anyone to celebrate your success with. With each other we can go through this and we can come out on top as victors. So I would like to end this post by saying, remove the negative voices in your life, looks for the one that love you enough to pull you up when you are down, pull you back when you are going in the wrong direction and one that are willing to spend the time pulling the potential out of you and transforming that into successes, lets win this together, goodnight.
