CRAZY WORLD

We meet many different people throughout our lives for various reasons. Sometimes we help them, and sometimes they help us, but the funny thing is that we often meet them in the strangest, most unethical ways, which is kind of crazy... but hey, we live in a crazy world.


Out of all those people, there will always be some that will be there for you – at some point you both share parts of yourselves which very few know, even though at times you where both frustrated with each other. This bond will hold for years to come. You may not be near each other, maybe you won’t see each other for some time, but as soon as you do, all that lost time will disappear in a second. It is what I call unconditional love... at any moment, in any place you will be there for each other.


As I said, we live in one crazy world... and most of us will lose the plot at one point or another, even though we don’t like to admit it. As for why I am writing this post today? There is not one straight answer to tell you the truth... so I will just leave it at that :)


Life is short and sweet, even though at times it may seem to be the biggest BS. We are all here for some reason, big or small, and there is always a reason we meet certain people. There is no point in holding onto anger of any kind, there is so much going on around you if you take the time to look, that to tell you the truth you really don’t need anything more than that. The real deal at the end of the day is to find yourself and be happy. Enjoy your life!


Love, peace and big muscles,

WHAT IS THE BEST MOTIVATOR AND WILL IT GET YOU ALL THE WAY?

Hate and anger, finding peace and love within, or slowly seeing yourself develop into the picture you had in mind when you just started?

For me, being a bodybuilder or a fitness athlete is like a work of art. You start off with an empty, white canvas and you slowly give life to it by finding ideas and motivation to paint a picture to perfection. The picture can be anything you want it to be... colorful and full of live, or dark and mysterious...

But what really motivates you to reach that end goal? Personally, my biggest achievements were reached through hate and anger. However, this is not the healthiest means of motivation. In fact, it is a double-edged blade and it is pretty hard to balance in the middle; your strong emotions can push you over the limit and this can lead to you harming yourself. And then when all the anger and hate disappears, what keeps you going? For me, it is about seeing myself develop slowly from that white piece of canvas to a form of art which I am proud of, and also making my close ones – which help me reach my target goals – feel proud and enabling them to play a part in my success.

So at the end of the day, when all that frustration and hate is gone, the long term motivator is in finding peace within yourself. Because all that hate and anger which is such a strong motivator initially, doesn’t really last that long and is not healthy ... its expiry date comes as soon as you reach that certain goal. But the true winner is the one that continues achieving successive goals AND is truly happy inside, rather than just showing a fake happiness on the exterior.

So what is my conclusion? Well I guess I’ll leave it to you to decide. At the end of the day, there is no definitive answer and no-one can say that they know it all. I just share some thoughts with you which I hope may help you on your own path to success.

Love, peace and big muscles.
