Hi everyone!
Well, this has been a great week! I made serious progress on my swimming on Monday. Coach Julie gave a great kernel of wisdom. Maybe this will help YOU swim better too! (Or at least help with anything you need to have a little rhythm to do.) Choose a mantra or sing a song in your head to keep an even breathing rhythm. Man, that really enhanced my mood and my power! I must say I had more energy AFTER my workout than before! Here were my mantras: "I CAN DO IT!" "I'M A WINNER" "YES, I CAN!" Wow, just typing those makes me feel all energized and happy! Never ever underestimate the power of positive thinking and positive personal praise. Our fragile egos can sometimes use the boost... even if we think we are doing alright. I think I'll even incorporate that theory into other areas of my life. For example... I think that praising and encouraging the people around me will be beneficial to all of us!
