Life starts at the end of your comfort zone

So, I'm finally back from a wonderful trip to Cádiz, Spain. And man, was that awesome!! We went out every night, had lots off, unfortunately, we didn't live quite healthy, at all. But hey, I had fun, and now it's just back in the gym for more hard work. That also brings me to my topic of the day. Achieving your maximum.
While being in Spain, I talked to some pretty interesting people. People who, in some way, could guide on my path. You see, I have always figured that, if you feel comfortable, why stop doing it. Man did i learn my lesson. In the last week, I've been thinking a lot, and I've come up with, that I'm stuck right now. I'm not really moving on with anything in my life. That's why I, in the future will push myself even further, to achieve the maximum output of my body and mind. And why would I listen to what other people think? It's my life, right? Why not do what I want? I'm not put in this world to satisfy you? You're mad at me? Fine, be mad at me. It's fully your decision and I can do nothing to change it. You're purely the only person to decide whether you like me or not. I'm just being me, and if I don't keep walking, I'll always be stuck in the same place. And I don't really care if you like it or not. It's your decision. All I know is, I have to push myself to make any progress.

But hey, It's good to be home..

Going for your desires

Wow, I heard, in my opinion, one of the most stupid things ever today. My English teacher said during class; "It isn't always good to go for you desires". And in my head, I was like: "Dafuq is wrong with you?".

Let me explain.
Desire: Desire is a sense of longing for a person, a feeling, an object or hoping for an outcome.
Well, in that case, not going for your desires, are just plain stupid in my opinion. It's like wanting that cookie really bad, but not wanting the cookie. It doesn't make any sense, does it now? In my mind, desires are what you long for the most. It's what you really want and what takes you sky-high. For me, it's the pump from every hard workout. Everyday in the gym, my biggest desire is to get that feeling of awesomeness. Everyone have had that feeling at some point in their life. And everyone knows that it's the best feeling in the world. As Big Arnold ones said: "For me, working out is like cumming. I'm cumming in the gym at day, and I cum at night at home. Can you imagine how awesome that is?"
That example really got to me, because if you think about it, he's right. Everyone love the feeling of having an orgasm, and if you are able to get that feeling all the time while working out, what are you bitching about then?

Everyone has their own desires. Some people are also talking about bad desires. Desires that are unhealthy or what not. Some people maybe have a bad desire for beer. I think beer is a really good example 'cause beer tastes damn good, but there are really many bad things in beer, for example additives that makes you put on weight. If you drink it all the time, you'll have a "beer-gut". That isn't very flashy to walk around with.
Some people come up with advices like: "Just stop drinking beer". Why? Why would you stop drinking beer? Just cut down on your use. There's nothing in this world that you should ever let go of, if you really like it. If you work out and drink beer, you'll not get fat, you'll stay in shape. No harm.

The other day, I was watching the old movie "Pumping Iron". At some point, Arnold said something that relates to desire as well. A reporter asked him: "Arnold, do you drink a lot of milk?" To that, he replied: "No, I don't. Milk's for babies. I drink beer. Real, grown up men drink beer." I like like that phrase, 'cause he's right. When you grow up, you have to replace some of your childish and old desires with new and improved desires.

But you should never give up something. You should go for your dreams. Shoot for the stars, try and try again, and you'll succeed.
