Ever sit back...

[t3c]

I know most of you guys are never happy with the way you look or how strong you are and are always looking to better yourselves...

I was just wondering if anyone here ever just takes a second...sits back and says, "hey, look what i have accomplished", its amazing if you think about it.

Oddly...

Oddly enough, I did that just the other day. I kept saying "I need to train more, need more muscle" then I was like "Wait, dammit, look already I have a six-pack, and everyone's complementing me on how much I've increased in both bulk and tone. Be proud!

I deffinately do. I mean I'm not huge by any means at 5'11 182 lbs, but this being my third cycle I cut up very nicely and gained alot of muscle. I mean I'm never satisfied and I'll keep working to get biggere and stronger but I do look in the mirror time to time and am amazed at what I have accomplished I also think like this evry time I get a complaiment about my body.

I look back and think damn I've done this much, there is so much more i can do....

I guess that I am never happy with what I have. I see where I can be...and focus on it too much.

i think about it for a split second when i see an old picture or someone else says something.......

but if you just ran for 200 miles without stopping........ people will pat you on the back......... i mean c'mon, thats a whole lot....... but then i just say thank you, because i know i still 800 more miles to run

get the picture!?!?!

Exodus---- awsome analogy!!....thats how i look at it to....i rarely say "look what Ive done" but i always say "look what i have left to do"

it seems right now like a never ending race right now.

but arnold said something one time which i thought was very brilliant....... he said he quit competition bodybuilding because if he continued....... he would be satisfied........ in other words his race would be over........ so he changed his passion from bodybuilding to acting.......... but never lost the passion.

never lose the passion, just redirect it........ just like bill kazmair did........he went from powerlifting, to strongman, to highland games...... and if he had ever done bodybuilding...... he could have been a champion at that too.........

maybe thats why i admire them both.........heck....... Kaz could probably even be a champion at bodybuilding even now...... its just not fair!!!!!

I like that

I think it will never be enough to be satisfied... if I got the muscle I will want more definition... if I got the definition I want more quality.. if I got the quality I want more size... if I got the size I want the strength...

never ending story, however I like this and I only look at what I've accomplished when someone shows me an old picture. But only for a moment till I get to think of what I need to do next.

I am never satisfied. I get a big thrill on setting personal records and achieving my goals.

 

[ChillyDog]

haha I do this eveyday! When I'm at the gym I just love how I look, all pumped up. I am fairly satisfied with my body right now but of course I have goals and WILL reach them. You gotta have goals, and when you reach them oh how good it will feel. I remember the first time I broke 200lbs, that was great although I had too much BF - it was still a rush!

ooooo god. Its like it was just the other day that i was benchin 185 for my max. Now im up 110lbs a yr n a half later. Learned so much, and gained 25lbs of muscle (i was always pretty cut n lean with abs). Learned more on here than anywhere else too. My only regret was not taking before pictures back then. All i have now is my results, and no1 will ever know where i had to start from. Oh well.
