I just deleted my previous training log. Why? Because I have just been f#cking around.
I am the type of person that doesn't pursue a lot of things in my life, but the things I choose to do are done with dedication and near obsession. But I've come to a realization recently. I acknowledge my status as a leader in the local and national communities and the fact that some people look up to me as a traceur. But do I really deserve it? I don't think so. I train, but I don't train hard enough, long enough, disciplined enough. I feel like my parkour has been at a relative standstill for months now. There are too many goals I have that have been left unaccomplished for too long. I have reached a plateau and I have become lazy and unmotivated to step out of my comfort zone; something that must be done to progress in parkour.
If you aren't moving forward, you are moving backwards.
I've taken on a new attitude to my training and it begins now. I am in a position in which I feel like I letting myself and others down by wasting time and not progressing. I am all talk and no walk. The words of wisdom, my so called motto, have been in my face all along.
There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level.
It's is time to get serious and start accomplishing things. Anything less than accomplishment and progression will be seen as a failure. I have been waiting around too long for the perfect time to get shit done, for it to fall into my lap. There is no perfect time to try something new or to work toward a goal. The time is now and there are no excuses.
This log will be updated every day with my training efforts. I have made a deal with Strydzz to do this so we can keep on top of and push each other. But in the end, the progression comes down to one person, myself.
