Its ok to be mad when things aren't going your way or you are facing adversity. Blake says he was asking himself the wrong: "Why me?"

If this is you right now, get up, dust yourself off, lean on your village of support, and keep going!

Whatever you are passionate about, you have to put your whole self into it if you want to be truly successful at it. Olympians and Paralympians have an inner drive that is rare. Working hard is always something within your control.

If you’re thinking about that thing you want to try, do not be to intimidated to do it. Sometimes it may take a few tries before it sticks. Don’t live your life regretting something you wanted to do. Don't let it be a memory.

Control your controllables.

You can work hard. You can ask questions. You can learn from others who are better than you. You can lean on your support systems in times of need.

In moments of setback such as these, a mindset change can make the difference, but also, lean on your support systems. That can be anyone who you know inspires you to be better.

Olympian Kim Glass talks about appreciating your body. This is an incredibly important thing whether you want to be an Olympic/Paralympic athlete or not. Eat right, get rest, stretch, and exercise. But also, appreciate the imperfections.

Life seems to be moving so fast, careening us through uncharted challenges. Stepping back from the frantic pace of life, we can acknowledge the strength and adaptability that reside within us. So take a step back and view this evolving landscape through the lens of positivity.

Fall 7 times, stand up 8!

People forget that those who are always standing on top of the podium have experienced many setbacks. Having resilience, perseverance and continuing to work through the hard parts are what makes being a champion such an indescribable feeling.

#Flashbackfriday to that time Natalia Mayara won @gsd_sidewinder Athlete of the Year at the 2023 LA Sports Awards.

Natalia is an absolute FORCE in athletics but her presence with kids all over LA is really special. She leaves a huge impression on every kid she interacts with.

This quote speaks for itself, directly from the GOAT herself.

These are all things we can control. Being kind, staying humble, and working our hardest to be courageous and strong, even if its hard.

Getting yourself physically out of your comfort zone is one of the best ways to get better. It is important to get yourself out of breath and try to push yourself to do a few more when you've reached the point of "I'm not sure I can do it anymore." THAT is how you get better.
