“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity.” – James Clear
This is a statement that has driven my actions this week. Every meal, every snack, every glass of water, every workout, and every morning that I wake up is an opportunity to vote for the person that I want to become: healthy. I am also realizing that my mind holds the power – I can think I can or can’t, and both are true. But, what if I actually CAN hold that Zone 6 in Power Zones Training for the entire minute? What if I CAN complete a 45-minute Peloton session? What if I CAN pedal out of the saddle? Funny… when I think I CAN, I actually CAN. Mind over matter, friends.
