Imagine if the 2012 London Olympic 100m sprinters decided to run with a kit bag on their back, industrial steel toe cap boots, and a dress suit. They would come last by a long way. Why? Well you cannot compete effectively if you are carrying baggage. You need to put down all the excess baggage and run as light as possible.
Swimmers at the 2012 London Olympics will shave all the hair off their body or will wear specially designed swim suites that allow no resistance in the water. Even the slightest bit of resistance will affect the finish time of the race.
How much baggage are our athletes carrying around mentally? How much baggage are we carrying around?
The current times are certainly not allowing us to think positively. There is so much doom and gloom being forecast for now and the foreseeable future. Strip off the excess baggage and run lighter by getting involved with an antidote for the negative information we are being fed. We can do this by listening and getting involved with positive information. There is no way to beat this - you have to fight fire with fire.
I do not care what positive information you use but use something. Why would anyone just sit back and allow others to dictate how we should think and how we should feel. If they are going to field a top side at the 2012 London Olympics they need to start the conditioning right now. There is no time to delay. If you want to get some results I suggest you too start your conditioning now.
