Full disclosure, I took these rules from my fellow kettlebell coach Cameron Martin, but they’re just too good NOT to share with you guys. Living by them REALLY helps clear things up with how you make decisions in life… (1) I’m a husband and a parent first. Everything else regardless of how important it is to me comes second to family. (2) I will carve out at least 10 minutes per day, four times a week to prioritize my physical fitness. If I can’t put in that ten minutes, I’ll accept that just ONE is better than NONE, and gladly take what the day gives me without feeling shame. (3) Although I recognize I am not perfect, I will strive to do my best and perform all tasks with a high standard of excellence. (4) I will commit to a nutrition plan that is congruent to my goals, however, not be so strict as to interfere with a high quality of life that allows for me to enjoy good food with good company. …and (5) I will recognize that it’s not what I want, but what I’m willing to do to get it that matters. If you live by these rules more often than you don’t, it’s only a matter of time before you accomplish the great big badass goals that you want to accomplish!!! Hands Up…KEEP FIGHTING!!!
