A lot of that is psychological, I remember learning in psych that if somebody tells you that you’re something fairly often “like you’re very handsome” people will reflect that and carry that attitude around with them. Same with limits, you can convince yourself that youre stronger and thus be able to lift more, but you still can’t move mountains.

This is definitely true. I always wonder how many credit hours per semester I could actually take if I didn’t have the mindset of “18 is a huge unmananagable load.” Even if I spend the 2:1 ratio of studying to in class time that’s only 54 hours a week, and let’s be real, who actually does that? My Mom has had to work 80 hours some weeks so I know I can handle much more than I volunteer myself for.

I think it is true, that people don’t try to accomplish something simply because they are too afraid to do it for the first time. When it has already been done, there is a manual on what to do and what not to do and the person usually states what they would have done differently, etc. Even though I say this, I find it hard for myself to practice this very idea.

This is why I love working out. You can see the drastic changes your body makes over time and how much strength you gain from it. It is amazing and it only keeps getting better and better. WIth the right mindset you can reach your goals.

I really respect Roger Bannister. Running a mile within 4 min takes years of practice. Running 15 sec 100 meters constantly. I think this is very inspiring. Just like it mentioned from the blog, we have to always live our lives to our fullest potential.
