ACHIEVEMENT = Backbone – Emotional Baggage

Posted on 10.11.16 No Comments

heavy-load-shutterstock_283223510How much you achieve in life is pretty much determined by how much emotional baggage you carry and how strong of a backbone you have developed.

Everybody has emotional baggage, emotionally difficult experiences that have not fully healed. Emotional baggage is like a a bunch of rocks that you carry around with you in your backpack, they weigh you down and slow your progress.

Everybody has backbone, challenging situations that you have successfully overcome. A strong backbone and core help you run faster and longer,  climb higher mountains and lift heavier weights without hurting yourself.
