Muscle Minute #35: Stop Letting Fear Stop You

“I’d rather fail trying than wonder, ‘What if?’”

Imagine this: you’re warming up for your squat, and everything’s feeling great. You’ve had an awesome day, and now, you’re about to take on a heavy weight. But here’s the catch—you're in a gym where heavy lifting isn’t the norm, and there’s no real spotter.

You’re up against the decision: do you take the weight and push your limits, or do you play it safe, dump the weight, and risk making a scene?

If I believe I can make it, I’ll take the shot. If I miss, I’ll deal with the discomfort for a short time, but I’ll learn from it and get it next time.

I apply this same mindset to life and business. I'd rather fail trying than wonder, "What if?"
