Morning Leaders. This was me talking to myself the other day after Muay Thai class:
“Training is not about being great. It’s about being challenged beyond your comfort zone. Give it all you’ve got. This is not a time for cruising. It’s a time to live on the edge of who you are and who you will become. Live there on the edge. This is what training is all about.”

Morning Leaders. “When a resolute young fellow steps up to the great bully, the world, and takes him boldly by the beard, he is often surprised to find it comes off in his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away the timid adventurers.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson
