🤔 THOUGHT
This is what it looks like when you fall in love with something but ya got nothing.
My first powerlifting meet as a senior in high school, posing in my trailer with my plaque dreaming of lifting weights for my job one day.
The year: 1997. I never met a personal trainer before. I didn’t know one person that had the job I wanted, and the internet and social media didn’t exist.
I couldn’t see myself going to a four-year college, and I didn’t have the grades or ACT scores to get in.
I felt a bit hopeless, but worked really hard underground in the coal mines to save money to give myself a chance.
I fell in love with lifting weights, getting better every day, and helping others.

“When you fall in love with the process rather than the product, you don’t have to wait to give yourself permission to be happy. You can be satisfied anytime your system is running. And a system can be successful in many different forms, not just the one you first envision.”
