“Water the flowers, not the weeds.”
Imagine your vision being a water hose.
And wherever your attention goes, you water.
Because whatever we end up watering… grows.
Every day, we are going to spend our water (our thoughts), on something. And there is a finite amount that we get to spend. If we choose to spend it on the weeds, those thoughts will grow stronger. Purely for the visualization, imagine gossip, and where that takes us.
Check in with ourselves today.
Are we watering the flowers, or the weeds?

– Score: Time
Strategy
– In the first part of this workout, we want to reach for unbroken sets of kettlebell swings. We can pace the burpees in a way that will allow us to hold onto the swings.
– In the second part of this workout, we should choose which movement we want to push, and which movement we want to pace. If we push the run, we can pace the burpees in a way that will allow us to push the run.
