Olympic Edition: Aspire to Inspire…One Day at a Time

This is my last article on this year’s inspiration for me, the 2012 London Olympians that represented The USA oh-so-well this year!

I love how everyone in the entire world gets so excited and anticipates the Summer Olympics ever 4 years, however shortly after the hype leaves and everyone goes on about their daily lives as if nothing just happened, and really it’s the complete opposite. If I am not mistaken this year’s Olympians from all over the world’s ages ranged from 16 – 72 years old? Wait! What? Yup, that’s like 3-5 generations competing for GOLD baby!!! Now if that isn’t inspiring enough to just a little bit every day for your HEALTH (in the LONG run) then I don’t know what will. It’s not about looking a certain way or being a certain size/weight it’s about your health and how much further in life you’ll be able to go without any “health related” set-backs.

For each and every athlete that I read about I could just about relate to them at one point in my life or another, and with that being said I just became so much more motivated to become a…I’m sorry The Better ME! I mean You have one young lady making history and no one can seem to focus on nothing but her appearance {Gymnastics} , you have another lady who has tried and tried again and again for an individual gold and never gave up (Because she got it this year) {Track-&-Field} , you have another lady who almost had a perfect score in a sport that is dominated by men{Skeeting} , there is another young lady who literally knocks out the competition-beating all odds and is the first ever in her sport to receive a GOLD in this event {Boxing}. I mean every single day in every single sport there was someone just like you and me who was ACCOMPLISHING the IMPOSSIBLE….Why can’t we do the same, even on a small-scale, even just on a day-to-day basis??

I get so emotional reading, researching, and watching these incredible people give it their all for years for just ONE shot to get that PRECIOUS commodity that EVERYONE else in the world wants JUST-AS-BAD and yet they NEVER seem to lose focus, however we have a bad day and make it seem like it’s the end of the world.?! Ahhhh okay I guess I’ll wrap this up, I guess what I’m trying to say is please stay focused throughout the year and never let anything or anyone get in the way of any dream you have big or small. You were born with everything you needed in order to accomplish all your goals and live your purpose, so what’s the point of holding yourself back with just ONE stumble/bump in the road?? Doesn’t make much sense when you realize you weren’t made to give up/give in…but to stand up/stand out!

{BE}lieve {YOU}self…..you never know you might be someone’s inspiration.

So aspire to inspire…who you inspire might aspire to do the same.
