We all Have Giants to Over come in Our Life...I'm Dealing With Some Right Now...We Must However Face Them in Order to Defeat Them.

Giants are the difficult things (or they could be failures) you are dealing with in your Life right now! What ever they are...These are your Giants!

If you're an athlete and your giant was a bad performance, then in order to understand what really happened, you must face it "head on" with honesty and humility. The same is true no matter what your giant is.

You may have more than one giant in your life. You've got to fact them though..."head on"...no matter how difficult.

If you don't face them then you'll never defeat "the Giant" and have a break through. To break through something there's got to be some force applied. So if you want a break through you're going to have to apply some force. The bigger the giant...the more force that's needed.

A Break Through can only occur by facing the challenge ("the Giant") with with honesty and humility...and remember to CARRY A BIG STICK!

I just read your blog and I felt like you wrote it just for me. I haven't had the best performance through out my athletic career and I can understand what you're saying. It'd be an injurey here or an injury there and it would just set me back. Usually these happened right when the dots were starting to connect so to speak. Thanks for the blog and the helpful advice.

Lee I don't always understand how your blogs can apply to me, but this one is universal. I have had a compulsive disorder for about 20 yrs., It just started one day and I could not figure out why until a few years ago. It has been a way for me to deal with fears and not face them. Your idea on facing fear is how I try every second of every day to get through the day. That is great advice, and I hope what people use it. It has kept me from early success, fear. Now I try to own it, but it is not easy, and it's a struggle that only a wrestler can understand. Actually when I'm wrestling it's the only time I don't do the compulsions. But getting to the tournement or the mat was a different story. All the best Lee Kemp, Northeast Ohio has always called you home, not one of the greats but the great.
