DAILY MINDSET
“Pursue one great decisive aim with force and determination.” – Carls Von Karlswich

Choice is one of the most powerful things we have as human beings.
But hiding in that power, is also one of the most destructive forces imaginable.

Ironically enough, the missing link to accomplishing that “thing”, is choice… specifically, the lack of it.

A different thought process from the quote above, is to stop trying to do everything.

To be able to stand in a room with a thousand doors, and close 999 of them. To choose, which will never be the slightest bit of an easy task, where to apply our full focus.

Are we trying to do too much?

Medicine Ball or Dumbbell Squat Hold & Ankle Stretch: 1 Minute Hold + 30 Seconds Each Side
This is a two part stretch. First part hips, second part ankles. We’re starting with a medicine ball squat hold, using the ball to drive ourselves into the bottom of a squat. Keep the chest high and drive the knees out with the elbows. For part two, lean your weight towards one side of the body to feel a stretch in the calves. 1 minute squat hold followed by 30 seconds each side for the ankles. If using a dumbbell for the workout, complete this with the dumbbell. Video [here](https://youtu.be/GMRCMNaY3ik).
