Mental Fitness

It was mid January, a late-night five minutes after twelve when I felt the compulsion to script this material. I was lying on my bed gazing at the ceiling and praying. There I lay fixated on the thought of how I could possibly help others achieve more and then it struck me. A thought crossed my mind, “You always wanted to write a book, why not turn to your passion and write a book about it.” I found my passion in helping people think at a higher level than they normally are accustomed. The tipping point of knowledge and inspiration I received for writing this book came from being a life-long athlete and the process of training to be a professional athlete. During the time of training for professional athletics I was successful in seeing the mentality of professional athletes first hand. During my time of training I trained alongside some well known and exceptional athletes. During this stint I also worked full-time as a personal trainer and gained valuable wisdom. I thought it was interesting that those I trained being the average person who had never played a professional sport showed similar commitment and dedication to their physical health just as the professional athletes I trained alongside. Many of those that I trained showed fierce commitment to their betterment. I saw that in all endeavors of life the people who get results are the ones who believe they can. Also, working as a personal trainer I saw the correlation between physical health and mental health, physical stamina and mental stamina, physical strength and mental strength. My entire life I carried the fascination of understanding why people thought as they did. I was intrigued by the mental qualities of people and as a result I brought together my interest in the mind and my love for training. I thought it would be unique to come from a personal trainer's perspective on the training of the mind. The personal trainer's main focus is conditioning the body to be physically fit; I wanted to take those same principles and apply them to condition the mind to be mentally fit. My goal is to help the reader transform their mind for the better. Being that everything starts at mind level being mental fit is a necessity to all. Who can't benefit from hands on instruction? A personal trainer is an instructor who instructs the client on the proper way to workout, eat healthy, and live a balanced life. All you would need to do then is show-up and be willing to work. The first half of the book details the warm-up, the stretch, mind composition, losing of mental weight, the building of mental strength, and the gaining of mental endurance. The second half of the book comprises of steps to reach a full life. By reading this book you will be training your mind to be a successful and better person. As I've already began this journey I would like for you to join me as I become your personal trainer for your mind.
