Supplements are something you will see around in all kind of places….even the health food stores have them….which makes you think then, that they must be good.
I was listening to the radio in the car one day and they were saying that even young kids at school now think about taking supplements to boost their performance.
I guess if I was truthful when I was at High School I would’ve thought about taking them to beat Brandon Dale who was just the best at any sport he tried. He won everything! Possibly peer envy would then have made me look at something that may have given me an extra edge. I don’t know…but I can understand why people find them attractive…..a quick fix is always alluring.
So I asked about and found out that even the ones in the health stores have additives in…and whilst I was really drawn to what they said on the cover….I couldn’t really ignore that.
I’m still finding out more about them. Yet I thought to myself how much did I want to achieve my goals?….how much was it about doing it?…. and how much was about doing it fast?
I had to really think to myself that if this is something I wanted to do for the rest of my life then maybe I needed to stop focusing on the fast. I made the focused decision to slow things down and do it the (maybe) harder way.
Sure I wanted the results and I felt I was on the right track…so I was going to keep the bottles and powders away from me.
Even if I did come across Brandon Dale in my gym again (haha…). Here’s hoping you’re at another one!
