GOAT

When I was introduced to Crossfit I learned a term that baffled me for some time. The term was "GOAT", now I thought I understood this term, greatest of all time! In the world of crossfit it means work on your weaknesses. Now in recovery I believe our character defects and step ten are the same thing, our daily reprieve from the insanity of life.
 My mind, my self will, doesn't want me to do battle with my GOAT, my self will doesn't want me to look at my character defects, self will wants me to fall to pieces to give up, hard times have not come to stay they have come to pass! I have learned that if life knocks me down I land on my back so I can look up because if I can look up I can get up and continue the fight. Easy is not an option I must remain working on my GOAT to further myself in health and recovery. Do not ever let some one tell you, you cant do something. I use the pain to push me to greatness. If I fail I fail forward! The Program has taught me that progress not perfection and in healthy living I have adapted the same thought process in my fitness as in recovery. I don't let the distraction distract me from my GOAT,Ii will conquer every obstacle in my way mind, body, and soul with a little surrender and hard work and probably a little pain, all blessings come with a price the price is hard work! DO WORK family, make it a great day! WHEN YOU ARE GREAT YOU ATTRACT GREAT WHEN YOU ARE AVERAGE YOU ATTRACT AVERAGE!
