Today we open up with the frustrations of everything going on and address how we are moving forward as athletes, coaches, and business owners. Frustration and anger hits everyone, but what do they mean at the core? How do we react and reframe challenges. It's not as simple as "glass-half-full" but it's definitely not a blame game either. How do we wake up and pursue something that builds deeper roots for tomorrow? Topics: Triathlon/Life both are a little dicey these days The frustrations and removal of stresses It's HOW we're dealing with everything When Robbie and Mike deal with tough days When you're in a boxing ring taking body shots Are you gonna say F-It or keep getting up The stress of kids and school Systems Checks When we don't know how long the fight is We're used to chasing a carrot . . . Is your glass half-full? It's easy to get angry now What about the 1st time racers mindset? Decisions when the race gets canceled The mad dash to put your chips back on the table When you need to pick up your poker chips and break Questioning your anger We all come from a different place Frustrations with big decisions When things don't look like you envision them Do you create problems or solutions? Opportunities are always there Instant engagement and fixes Isolation troubles Comfort food in need The need to escape Grounding ourself without stable future? Meditation and accepting things as they are Long-term simple habits When things we assume will happen, don't . . . We should be our biggest cheerleaders Is the world against you?
