Spring-Summer 2019
There’s a Why You BY KEvIN SMITH SMITH (FLEX SMITH) PRESIDENT OF THE BODYSMITH INC NGA PERSONAL TRAINER WWW THEBODYSMITHPLAN COM/ THEBODYSMITHPLAN@GMAIL COM Life is kind of funny You wake up eat go to work hit the gym spend time with family sleep and pre-
pare to do it all over again For most people this daily routine is is pretty common Recently I was listening to motivational speaker Les Brown and he he stated “Most people die by the age of 25 but do not get buried until the the age of 65 ” Why? Because they stopped stopped dreaming they stopped stopped believing and at some point in in in their life they became comfortable with existing instead of living However I I believe that we we are all created for a a a a a a a a a a a unique purpose Inside each of us is the answer to to a a a a a a a a a a a major problem an an an an invention that changes the the the future and the the the ability to to to create the the the life we we were meant to to to live So what’s stopping you? Is Is it it fear? Is Is it it doubt? Anger? Frustration? Are you you you spending most of your time complaining and blaming others for your degree of of success or or lack thereof? Well it’s about time that we change it it Zig Zig Ziglar stated “Fear is is Fantasized Experi- ences Appearing Real ” This means that we take our subconscious thoughts and place them into a a a a a a future that hasn’t existed yet So we work ourselves up for nothing Most people see see fear fear as a a a a a a negative emotion But I I want you to to see see fear fear positively In order to to be successful in in in in anything we we do in in in in life we we need to to gather all all resources and information avail- able to to to us us us Fear is just a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a resource resource that allows us us us to to become aware of potential dangers and it it can guide our ability to take calculated risks What if Arnold Schwarzenegger didn’t sneak off the military base to enter his first bodybuilding com- petition? What if Michael Jordan believed he he he wasn’t good in in in basketball after he he he he didn’t make the varsity team in in in in high school? The point is no no matter who you are famous or not we we all all experience something that that tries to to prevent us us from becoming all all that that we we we were meant to to be 40 NGA NATURALmag
