Challenges Into Growth

You've decided to work out every day, to six times per week, for 90 days. But not just any workout, it's a CrossFit Workout.

Imagine walking into a CrossFit gym for the first time after thinking it over. You know it won't be easy, but you want to become and feel powerful.

When you go to training, the instructor asks questions and shows you around the gym to help you relax. Before class, you hear the clanging weights and see the determined faces of people ready to start with music playing in the background.

During your workout, you remember to encourage yourself and think, "I got this."

Afterward, you feel exhausted but fantastic because you did better than expected, and your brain releases dopamine, knowing you gave it your all.

Your intelligence and research have paid off because you are safe, and you're already looking forward to doing it again...

Now, picture that commitment sustained for over six years.

I began my CrossFit journey with a body used to comfort, not challenge. Turning pain into growth inspired me. With every burpee, power clean, and challenging workout taught me resilience. I learned to accept challenges instead of resisting them, and this lesson applied beyond the gym.

As entrepreneurs and real estate professionals, we often have to reach out, make contacts, and build connections to help people.

It can be a relentless grind similar to the daily challenges of a CrossFit Workout, or if you love what you do, it can be a sign that you are living your life purpose. Either way, you can achieve even more when you consciously accept challenges.

Can you recall a time when you faced a challenge and overcame it? How did that make you feel?

When you face and overcome the challenges you encounter, you become more assertive.

By making your calls when you don't want to and overcoming rejections, you can become more resilient.

Doing CrossFit for over six years has taught me to do what is hard and to keep going even when I want to quit.

So, as you go about your day, channel the spirit of a CrossFit athlete or a Navy SEAL by doing what's difficult.

Make the calls, forge the connections, and get the sales.

Keep going, remembering that each 'failure' gets you closer to your outcome.

Rejection is a change of direction. But if you stay focused, you'll get to your destination.

It's like an airplane that's off course 90% of the time but eventually lands at its destination perfectly on time.

What are you committed to giving your energy to?
