In light of all the poor air quality here in the bay, we havent been able to train this week meaning no Hydehighlights Player of the week, that being said we still bringing y’all another segment so lets get into it!💪🏾
PATIENCE
Maan, Patience.. A word that is a lot more powerful than we realize.
When we think of patience our minds normally go to things like standing in lines, or waiting behind slow cars, or waiting on your family member that takes super long to get ready. Subconsciously our minds normally equate patience to other people, thats what we’ve been taught from young ages(Mostly), but what about patience with ourselves?
What about patience for yourself when you break a diet, or patience for yourself when you struggle on a concept in class, Or even when you struggle during drills on the court. I know y’all heard the saying Rome wasn’t built in a day, that saying has always held true, arguably more so in the sports world.
I wanna end on this, and I love the way my favorite trainer puts it. He says as trainers we are here to make you mess up. We are here to find your weaknesses, and we as trainers get excited to do so, because we know that with some time, effort, and most importantly patience, that will be your next strength. So let yourself make mistakes, embrace them, remember them, learn from them. But again, patience is key, because ultimately theres no growth without patience.
“The end of something is better than its beginning. Patience is better than pride.”
Ecclesiastes 7:8
Song: Calling 2
