Yesterday I was working out, which I do a good 5 days a week. I consistently do a workout program that’s called crossfit, which is an intense workout program that consists of all areas of fitness, aerobic and anaerobic. I’m a pretty competitive athlete when it comes to Crossfit within our gym even competing in a large national event so it’s something I understand well
I walked into the gym yesterday not really wanting to be there in the first place and little did I know the workout for the day was more intense then other days. As I was warming up for the workout, my mind consistently was telling me how much I did not want to be there. My mind was also telling me how sore my body was and all these excuses were just flowing through my head.
When it came to the workout, I had one of the worst workouts I have ever had. My body was cramping. I was playing mind games with myself and as a result my body turned off. I instantly wanted to beat myself up but instead I looked at it more as a lesson to be learned.
I asked myself why this was happening. The first thing that came to my head was my attitude coming into this workout in the first place. The second thing was that I allowed my mind to allow me to believe that I was sore and didn’t really want to be there. Third, I realized that the way we show up in something were are doing, be it work, relationships, or working out, is the same way we generally do everything in life.

Third, I realized that the way we show up in something were are doing, be it work, relationships, or working out, is the same way we generally do everything in life.
The last one was my big awareness. I realized that the way I did that workout is how I do lots of things in life. In fact, I understand that if I allow myself to listen to the negative talk inside my head that I’ll actually manifest that in my reality.
So if I’m telling myself that I’m having problems in my relationship or that my girl friend is doing this and that, I’ll actually see those things starting to happen in my relathionship. In addition, if I make up stories in my head that my girl friend is acting weird (even though she’s not, but I made something up in my head.) I‘ll actually show up differently around her, which will get her acting strange simply because she will wonder what’s going on with me.
Last example, if I’m working on a project that I know needs to be done and I’ve told myself how important it is that I do it, yet if my mind is coming up with more reasons not to do it. I’ll most likely never do it, and as a result I’ll lower my self esteem because I let myself down.
What’s not fun is by allowing our minds to consistently talk ourselves out of things we know we should be doing - or by us giving into our minds and listening to the things it’s making up about ourselves, other people, or the world - we are actually giving our power up. If you start to believe this stuff, you’ll see it become a reality in your outer life.
