Champion Challenge ” Underdogs “

Hey Friends! May Peace be upon you, around you and especially within you! I woke up this morning from a strange dream that involved insects and hamburger meat. Yesterday I learned that there are companies making maggot burgers and somehow this information trickled into my dreams. I was not impressed.

Today started with giving some big Thanks, some ginger, lemon, honey tea and granola with dried fruit cereal. Elvis was waiting with much anticipation for his breakfast and morning love. As usual as everyone woke up we said buongiorno and we all started our day.

It is yet another overcast day with a slight breeze that seems to move the misty fog from one location to the other. These days I kind of miss having the sun blessing me with it’s warmth. It’s ok though because as little orphan Annie says ” The sun will come out tomorrow.”

This morning I began the day with some clean up and helping do some deep cleaning around the house then I went straight into my stretches, Pilates, work out and some meditation. This whole process takes me around an hour and a half and I feel as well as have begun to see some results.

The Pilates have helped me with some flexibility and I am all in! I have never had a work out practice I truly enjoy until now. Honestly I never thought I would say this but it feels darn good.It’s been a great way to start my day.

After my work out I had Italian class, then did my 20 minute sketch challenge, did work and blog related tasks, made my phone calls and did some research. Consistency is what I’am striving for here.

Today’s food for thought is for all the underdog’s out there. All of us at some time or another have been an underdog. yes I see you and I’m talking to you. Those of us who come from nothing, we grew up without hand outs, with out that silver spoon in our mouth since birth.

Those of us that grew up with out a mother or a father and perhaps with out a reliable support system.Those of us who were misunderstood, mishandled and misguided. Maybe you got a few hand outs but you were not lead in the right way to help you to thrive, you were looked over and counted out in life.

We as underdogs we have been in a place of pain our entire lives and have done without for so long that once we get the scent of something we want or something that is our purpose.

We set our eagle eye sights on it and welcome the pain and the struggle to get to our purpose and goals. We are ready to take the throne of whatever obstacles that are laying before us.

We don’t give up, we don’t care what others have to say, we see our dream before us and we know that this struggle will be worth it.

The only things we have in our hands is our dreams, the only thing we have in our minds is a knowledge that if we could endure everything that life beat us up with then WE HAVE WHAT IT TAKES to over come any obstacles that stand between us our dreams and our purpose.

There is nothing more dangerous then an underdog who is going after their dreams, goals and purpose. We are the ones who while every one else is crying in the corner overwhelmed by the injustices of life, we say GET UP we got this!

When we enter the room and everyone can feel the shift of energy because they know that we are there with a purpose. We didn’t come to play cute little games WE CAME TO ACHIEVE GREATNESS! We have already been knocked down so many times and that no longer scares us.

We now have the mentality TRY Me! Go ahead.. tell us we are not good enough, strong enough or smart enough. There is no stopping us unless they kill us first! We will fight round after round after round because the lion in us is strong as hell and it has been awoken.
