Fight Well

From www.crossfitnextlevelperformance.com Author unknown.

The Olympic Creed of Athletes denotes the most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle. The essential component is not to have conquered, but to have fought well.
 Fight well. 

Fighting well begins in your mind. The mind is an amazing instrument. It will first and instinctively find a thousand reasons to stop, give in, do less and be comfortable even though our bodies have more to offer. You must find the ONE reason to keep fighting, to press on, to overreach your limits. To fight well. It starts with training your mind, then your heart takes over. 
 Fight well.

Though winning is a valiant goal, most of the thousands of athletes competing in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games know they will not receive a medal. They train and compete for the experience of an amazing world tournament that will test their limits, redefine who they are and to conquer what was once a personal best.
 They fight well.

No one truly knows but you what your personal best is. Regardless of your finish, if you pushed your personal boundaries like many of the Olympic Athletes beyond where you had been before… then you have the heart, mind and Viking Spirit of the Olympics and its Winter Games origin. You have fought well.
Train your mind to fight well. Your heart will follow.

Fight well. Finish impeccably.
