A good friend of Maine Hits, Emily Friedman shared this today. Emily is competing in the Reebok Crossfit Mid Atlantic Championships. A wise coach once told me that before any kind of test, physical or mental or intellectual, you get a feeling in the pit of your stomach. That feeling is one of two things. Its either nervousness or its excitement. Its when youre not prepared, have doubts, or have cut corners that you feel nervousness. If you have done everything you can to be prepared, you can enjoy the excitement of the competition. Mistakes are inevitable, but fearing them is what we have control over. The greatest athletes do not fail less ... they find a way to succeed more at the right time. Collect as many opportunities you can to succeed and put them in your pocket. I remember all your words Sue Enquist.
