I often get asked what are my plans are for the future and when am I going to compete again. It’s simple, when the time’s right for me. You’ll all know when I know, I promise. My life is about sleeping, eating, training, working, living and not necessarily in that particular order. Just because I’m not posting what I eat, or when I train, what my plans are or announcing my return to the stage doesn’t mean that it’s not happening. 2010 is all about finding and maintaining my balance of having it all and in harmony.
I obviously don’t post that I get up, I had a shower, got dressed, drove myself to work and so on an so forth. That’s because it just automatically happens and I’m not going to bore you to death with all the mindless details of my daily routine. My nutrition and training is going to become a normal part of my daily life and isn’t always going to be highlighted here on my blog. I will of course talk about my new nutrition and training when is happens but it won’t be every single day like it has been in the past. Don’t get me wrong, it’s as equally important but finding the balance for me is all about not focussing all my time and energy on one particular aspect of my life. I guess you could say that being task focused is going to be left behind in 2009. Instead it’s all about making a positive lasting change.
As for me competing, it’ll happen one day. My views and feelings about competing have changed and when I do it’ll be for very different reasons. It’s no longer about the competition, it’s much more personal than that. For me, returning to the stage will be about undoing what I’ve done to myself and my body during the death of my parents. It’ll also be about honouring both their memories. I haven’t applied the necessary self-discipline that I usually have, let alone be consistent enough with my nutrition and training due to one thing or another these past couple of years. Because of these reasons I’m taking my time with everything, so there’s no hurry. I want to present something different to what I’ve done in the past and if I want different I have to do different right. But, like I’ve previously mentioned I won’t compete until I’ve achieved a healthy mind body and spirit like I originally planned. So you see it’s all about the timing, and who knows when that’ll happen. All in good time my friends, all in good time.
2010 is going to be all about my healthy lifestyle and creating that balance. I know it can be done. Will it be easy? Hell no, life is seldom easy. LOL!! But it’ll be fun figuring it out along the way and no doubt I’ll learn many more useful lessons.
That’s what living is all about, finding the right balance and having it all because nothing’s impossible.
