Here’s Real Life&Death Lesson #26,029 that I’ve taught football players, college law enforcement students and women’s lifting teams for 45 years: The force that pulls you determines the force that pushes you.
You decide to workout today. You’ve had enough – dual meaning: i) you’ve had enough of not doing enough, and; ii) You’ve had enough of consuming more than enough. When your mind makes a decision to change for the better, you are pulled in by a force that is pulling you to “Kill the Pain.” Every decision to change for the better is prompted by some degree of killer-pain. Every decision to change for the better is attempted pain-killing. That decision starts a fight, the fight in your mind between what you ultimately believe is actually killer-pain or pain-killing. The distinction between what constitutes killer-pain and pain-killing causes the fight in your mind to Make The Right Call and to execute the right call, to go through with the right call.
Every decision to workout, eat right, get in Personal Best shape, starts a fight in your mind about what hurts most – working out or not working out. Eating right or not eating right. That fight boils down to the Extra Pounds Fight – multiple meanings. The fight to lose extra pounds, the fight to put on extra pounds, the fight to lift extra pounds. The winner of that fight is the difference between Winning Big and getting killed.
There are two Inner Forces that pull you – the force of conscience and the force of temptation. Both are a Magnetic Force, the title of one of my 65 books that I’ve written. I wrote the book to answer questions I’ve been asked about business, working out, how to get to the next-level in athletics-academics, how to build championship teams, how to make the playoffs, how not to get killed in the playoffs, how to get hired, how to get promoted, how to turn pro on the field, in the field. I wrote Magnetic Force in only 4 days because the words flowed – the concept is one I’ve taught over 25,000 students & athletes for 45 years, over and over and over. Live it, write it. That’s one of the Real-Life lessons I’ve explained to people who have asked how to write a book.
Right now, there are Magnetic Forces fighting for you attention. At this moment, Magnetic Forces are pulling you. Each Magnetic Force is pushing you to something that amounts to something or nothing. All Magnetic Forces are forms of energy that either energize you or drain your energy until you feel dead. The Magnetic Force with the strongest pull, pushes you in one direction or another. The Magnetic Force with the strongest pull determines which fight with extra pounds you win or lose. The fight with extra pounds determines what you win or lose when you’re Facing Elimination – dual meaning: i) when your playoff existence is on the line, and; ii) when lives are on the line.
