I Can…I Will. Watch Me.
This is one of my favorite sayings because it is true. The mind is an incredibly powerful force. Recently, I was with my trainer Andrew and he had a copy of the full poem that accompanies this famous quote from Henry Ford.
I thought now would be a good time to share this with all of you now that I am in full fledged contest prep mode with nutrition and exercise. The challenge in training for a body building show is having the faith that what you are doing today is going to equate to a polished physique 5 months from now.
That is a long time to maintain the level of discipline that is absolutely required to achieve my goal of competing. Every single day I must train and eat with only the faith that I will achieve my goal and that can be the biggest challenge of all.
You must believe every day that you can, that you will succeed. I think I can…I think I can…I think I can…I will.
Henry Ford Poem:
If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think that you dare not, you don’t;
If you like to win but you think you cant,
it’s almost certain you won’t.
If you think you’ll lose, you’ve lost;
For out in the world you’ll find
Success begins with a fellows will
It’s all in the state of mind.
If you think you are outclassed, you are;
you’ve got to think high to rise;
you’ve got to be sure of yourself before
you can ever win a prize.
Life’s battles don’t always go
to the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
is the man who thinks he can.
