Middle of March, end week entry
Emotions: Satisfied (training), tired, impatience
Have been feeling exited recently about my future and present career in fitness industry, and how I'm just where I want to be. Stories about unfufilling physio jobs (georgia) have helped, along with new boss Brad, who has big experience in fitness industry, who I can learn a lot from. Truly thankful to have such a great team to work with at icebreaker, and vision PT.
Sometimes its easy to forget that my line of work is much more interesting as a standard office job, and the skills I'm learning are fantastic toward building a successful career in the sport and health industry, for whatever path I end up taking.
This week I have done a lot of research on mental training and goal setting, notably Tony Robbins being my main source. The key pickup is to attach feelings of intense pain with bad habits I want to get out of. E.g. Indecision, belief that I can't relate to friends and acquaintances, can't fit it to a group, phobia of social gatherings. Attaching pain helps us change our habits and move to healthier alternatives, rather than relying on strength of will to get through it. Smarter not harder? Also works vice versa, attaching positive feelings of pleasure with good habits and achievements.

Why?
My original career goal was to find a discipline I enjoyed so I would not have to work another day. Every day I could wake up excited for my job and team I work with. The flip side of this was I wanted a career flexible enough to support my Ultimate/sport lifestyle, with a secure income to pay the bills and have extra left over. Now it is more focused on the industry I am most passionate about, my big interest in the function of human body, in relation to bio-mechanics, nutrition, athletic performance and sport psychology. My interest in sport psychology emerged the most in the last year of my degree, doing an Integrated coaching paper, with basic movement analysis being the focus in my second year, as part of my practicum with cyclist and hockey athletes.
