How THRIVE Can Transform Your Mindset
As we mature we understand the importance of our mindset…how we control the dialogue in our mind controls the impact of the stressors in our daily lives.
I was taught, “Your life is won between your ears.”
Meaning, your mind has to be controlled…it has to be constantly worked on.
When I was growing up in San Diego I had no serious worries about life, money, or career.
I was very fortunate.
I was just fully focused on friends, school, church, and girls🤷🏻.
Depending on the hour, that’s what I was focusing on…the following hour, it was on to the next.
Now that I’m older I think about several different things…but instead of changing each hour, they linger and most times I’m spinning basketballs trying to not let any of them fall.
This becomes stressful.
This beats me up sometimes…but that’s ok… it’s an opportunity for me to grow.
I truly know the payout is worth it.
I’m currently listening to a lot of John C. Maxwell…he’s a prominent speaker on a single subject…leadership.
It’s helping me tremendously.
One thing he said that has stuck with me…”It’s not about GETTING to the goal… it’s about GROWING into the goal.”
That’s what I’m trying to do…grow into each of my personal and business goals.
(the law of the lid).
So how can Thrive help you with your mindset?
Man…this is a deep subject, but let me start it off like this…
I’m sitting and chatting with our members who now have the responsibility of taking care of their 80+-year-old mothers.
The way they explain their own sacrifices for their mothers…it makes sense… it’s mom.
The most challenging thing now is the battle for time…it’s either their own health and wellness or handling their daily responsibilities.
Talk about daily stressors… there’s just never enough time in the day.
It’s hard.
It’s not easy.
I see the strain it takes on them.
And you know what the crazy part is?
I see in their eyes that they possibly see their near future…they’re scared because they see themselves possibly getting old like their mothers.
Getting older is inevitable…obviously.
But they’re taking the steps to care of themselves and their health.
It is scary.
There is anxiety.
The last time they worked out was 3-5 years ago…
But they know they’re shooting for more quality years for themselves.
They don’t want to go into the “abyss” with no hope.
They’re looking for guidance so their bodies can be stronger.
They’re looking for movement and exercise, rest, safety, and self-care.
Some are looking for a community of people who are going through the same events they are…
…and this is how our studio helps you transform your life.
…this is how Thrive helps you with the battle between your ears.
People can get a workout anywhere.
People can workout by themselves and still get stronger and healthier.
But it’s our community.
It’s walking in our doors and not feeling judged by how you look, feel, what you’re wearing, or what you’re going through.
Having a shared reality with a group of people is powerful.
Having a community of professionals that want to help you become a better you…that can be life-changing.
But it all starts with the thoughts between your ears… that’s where the battle is won.
I hope you find a place that will help you into an inspired life where you can feel recharged and renewed.
I’m rooting for you.
