Lack of time is often not a valid excuse. No matter how busy you think you are, you can almost always make time to work towards your biggest goals. You just need to make sacrifices and be disciplined with your time management.

If you improve your mind, your body will follow. Change starts in the head.

It's not until an athlete is able to remove him/herself from "normal" life stress that they realize just how much it was holding back their adaptation & improvement.

As a leader, you need to think for yourself. Don’t be afraid to go against the grain. Just because other coaches do things a certain way doesn’t mean you have to copy them.

@Alan_Couzens Love your goals! Sub 20 min 5 km would be extremely difficult for most people.

The best athletes are the grittiest. They use their passion and perseverance to outwork and outlast their competition!

"Leadership is lonely... If you're going to be a leader, you're not going to please everybody. You have to hold people accountable. Even if you have that moment of being uncomfortable." - Kobe Bryant

To succeed in life, do the difficult, boring, and unpopular things that others aren't willing to do.

[Dan Go @CoachDanGo]

1. Stop using your workouts to burn fat at the gym. Use them to build muscle & get strong.

2. Quit porn. The damage it does to your brain is too great of a cost.

3. Instead of using porn, drugs & alcohol to numb what you're feeling learn how to deal with your emotions.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

If our mind is not peaceful and tamed, no matter how marvelous the external circumstances are, we will be burdened by frights, hopes, and fears. With a tamed mind, we will enjoy wealth or poverty, health or sickness; we can even die happily.

Reality: when it comes to health, nothing is magic, including:

- vitamin D
- precision medicine
- intermittent fasting
- yoga
- mindfulness
- microbiome therapies
- regenerative med
- CBD
- homeopathy (obviously)
- etc, etc, etc.

Ok, maybe #exercise. Pretty magical. #Move.

A guy literally walks into the gym with his mask on, looks around and sees 99% of people maskless, then takes off his mask. That should tell you how many people would keep masking if only we had true leaders who prioritized safety during a pandemic.

"Research is increasingly pointing to #omicron causing less severe disease compared with previous variants. In addition, vaccination — especially with a booster — appears highly protective against hospitalization & death."

The best part of it being 2022 is that Ontario gets to elect a new government in 5 months. #VoteFordOut2022 #onpoli

First they make it hard to get rapid tests. Then they make it hard to get PCR tests. Then you become so frustrated with public healthcare, that you have no choice but to spend $ to buy privately.

Inch by inch, this is exactly how they're destroying our public healthcare system.
