Clear Vision, Small Circle

by

I grew up being told I was too skinny, I was too healthy and I should eat more. My surroundings didn’t understand. Soccer was a male sport, I shouldn’t be playing it. A fitness trainer is not a real job, I shouldn’t be working it.

That was all I heard, time and time again. But soccer and fitness always pulled at me. I was not only good at both of them, but they gave me such an incredible sense of drive and passion that I ended up having so many disagreements and arguments with people. They didn’t get it because they weren’t about it.

I remember one conversation, I had an early start, I was set to wake up at 3:45 am for a 4:30 am start to my day. When I was preparing for my day, my dad said why do you work at 4:30 am, that job is not a real job, you need to find a 9-5, so you can buy a house and make a family. I looked at him and said, “I’m not really like that, plus that does not seem fulfilling to me at all“. This is not to say that those who do live like that don’t have fulfilling lives, I know they do, but it wasn’t fulfilling to me.

Alongside this, I was big on fueling my body for my training and my performance. Although, at least 3 out of everyone would tell me I am too skinny, too healthy, and need to eat more. I took this, over and over again, until I snapped back one day and said “Eat more so I can look like you, no thanks, you are miserable and hate the way you are, stop wanting me to be the same and shut up”.

It’s unfortunate how true this is for people even to this day.

The reality is that friends, family, and whoever, don’t necessarily support you and your vision of yourself, even if they say they support you. Support doesn’t like fears. Support sounds like uplifting wins. It sounds like clapping hands and fists in the air screaming GO YOU!

I remember having a meeting at the start of this year and I asked the group, here is my first question… “Do you want to see me win?” Almost, all of them didn’t even hesitate and said Yes. Only 1-2 looked at me weirdly and gave me a courtesy yes, I now know more about that 6 months later (aka, they didn’t and they aren’t around)

Most of the reality is this, when you have goals, when you are passionate about something yourself when you care about what you are doing and how you are doing it, and when you are striving for success, you will know who in your corner, you will know who is there every step of the way.

You’ll hear the claps, you’ll feel the hands that carry you through hard times. You will share the moments of struggle with those willing to step in and help, you will feel the support in a way that makes your heart feel at ease.

I know this is hard for some of you. It was hard for me. Some days it still is because there are people who really mattered to me but didn’t support me. I no longer carry any resentment, bitterness, or anger towards them, they just don’t know therefore they can’t comprehend it.

This is why when you have a coach, everything changes. I work with people around the world. Here is what I wat them to feel…

I AM their biggest fan

I WILL hold them accountable

I AM honest with them

I WILL support the BEST for them

I AM their advocate

I WILL give them all I can

There is so much more to this, but those above are my top priorities. When you have someone or some people who truly care, your path changes and your results are different.
