"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Well, I'm thinking of trying out for track this year, as a sprinter, but the thing is, is that I'm really out of shape. Whenever I sprint about 2 laps or run at a normal pace for a few minutes, I start losing control of my breath and get several cramps in my stomach, if I'm going to join track as a sprinter, I'm definitely going to have to fix that and no I don't have asthma or any breathing disorder. So how do you suggests I get in shape? Also, if you guys have anything tips on keeping my breath, while running, that would help a lot too.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Control breathing, take it at a slower pace, build up the endurance.
this kind of thing is really not overnight.

Ive been running cross country for 5 years. The best way to get in shape is to start of little each day then increase every week.

For the first week, warm up, strech then jog or run for 5 minutes straight. Then some light weights.

Repeat for 5 straight days then go swimming or cycling on the 6th day then rest on the 7th day.

Next week go to 10 minutes of job or running then follow same procedure.

Make sure you eat something an hour before starting then eat some energy food or drinks 30 minutes before.

Get some whey after your finished your work out
