When Life Gets Heavy...

Hey Crew,

Sean here and man I gotta tell ya, when you put your mind in the right place and strive on with everything you got, positive things occur and your life can literally change in an instant!

You see, I coach my MXT members with lots of positive energy and reinforcement and one thing I coach very strongly on is positive mindset. Where your mind is strongly influences where YOU are and where you will go!

 Don’t believe me? Well, let me speak to your from experience…

About a month I got hit with some really bad events in my life. To put it bluntly, I lost my personal training facility and my business for that matter and it hit me HARD.

This was something that I put a lot of time, money, sweat and even tears in to and it almost made the full 6 year mark of being in business.

How bad did I feel? Well, to be honest there were days I did not want to get out of bed, answer phone calls, ignored text messages and really had my own little pity party.

 And my attitude, self-worth, motivation and drive all suffered and went way down to a new low that I had never experienced before in my life. (You can read more about in my last blog post, “When its time to fight back.”)

And where did my negative attitude take me?...

Further down into deeper depression and I even found myself doubting my abilities and wondering if I should just give up entirely.

Now, for those of you who know me and work with me every day I ask you; could you see me giving up in the fitness industry and doing something else?

Well, I thought about it and was close to quitting but then something happened…

In an instant, I changed my mind, I changed my attitude, I got my courage and I faced my fears and doubts head on!

I did EXACTLY what I coach to my clients. I put myself back into a positive mindset and said ENOUGH, its time to GET UP and FIGHT BACK!

And that’s just what I did and now fast forward just one month later…

More and more new MXT members are joining our classes each week. Some are coming all 5 days per week! They are getting killer workouts and they are giving me their positive feedback! 

They LOVE it here and they love the results they are getting and we are ALL having FUN every single day!

I am doing what I LOVE to do! 

I get to work around positive men and women each day, jump around, act a fool and get in shape while doing it!

AND! I get to be that positive role model to these guys and gals where they look up to me and ask for guidance, direction and motivation!

I truly believe NO ONE does the job that I do here in my area BUT it all started with the right mind-set! 

Knowing that I have something unique to offer and a true gift to motivate and lead my members to ULTIMATE results with tough but FUN workouts and sound nutrition.

 If I didn’t believe that, if I had let fear and doubt and the obstacles take me down… well… look at all these new members I wouldn’t have had the chance to work with.

Here is the thought I want to leave with you today...

If you are facing an obstacle that seems like a GIANT and impossible to get past don’t get down and out.

Instead, start by putting yourself in a positive place! KNOW that you will find a way through it and that life really isn’t all that bad.

Start TODAY - RIGHT NOW by picking yourself up and saying, this is the day I fight back.

I am positive, I am strong, I have faith and I have value to give to others!

My friends, I still have a long way to go to rebuild what I have lost BUT with a lot of drive, determination and a Champions Positive Attitude, I WILL achieve all the goals I have laid out for myself.

No one will stop me but me, and guess what, no one will stop you but you!

Will there be more surprises, obstacles and struggles?

YES! I guarantee there will be.

Will you keep a positive attitude no matter what and find the solutions to those challenges?

I know I will, and I will have fun every single day doing it!

Till next time gang, this is Sean “Mayhem” Murphy saying you got this!

And ALWAYS Remember…

You ARE a Champion!!!
