I had that dream again last night....
no, no, no - not THAT dream about being under clothed and unprepared...I actually haven't ever had that dream!
I have a few recurring dreams, the flying like superman one - can't ever have that one enough! I also have the dreams where something is out of place and I realize I am dreaming - at which point I then try to fly like superman! But the one I am talking about today is the dream where I can do something physically that is virtually impossible to me in real life, and it is EASY.
The dream usually involves doing a pull up of some kind and not only can I do it, it is TOTALLY EFFORTLESS!!! It is the best thing ever, just fantastic, and I get so happy about it. ( I know I am strange!!) This is VERY far from my real life, I can do about HALF of a single pull up. I am constantly in awe of upper body strength, and working really hard at getting some, so I can do more fun things. So when i can suddenly do it in my dreams it is like Christmas morning times 10!
So in last night's dream, I was near a ledge going down stairs in a house, and I grabbed the ledge and hung on it and it was easy, and I thought,
"wow this is really GREAT, I wonder if I can pull up".
So I tried it, and I did and it was SOOO easy. I was actually able to pull up, and then keep going until I was actually pushing down on the ledge and was above it. It is called a "muscle up" and it was magical - even if I could only do it in my dream! THEN the funniest part was I looked around for something in the dream to be weird, or off, so that I knew I was dreaming....and I when I saw nothing out of place, I decided it was real and it was fantastic!!
Wish this was me!!
Of course, as with all good dreams, then next thing that happened could be typed like this....
...feeling REALLY happy and excited for a moment....but then the reality of my half pull up set back in!! LOL
What is interesting to me is how my whole life is SOO different from 5 years ago. I would never have had dreams of doing pull-ups back then. I have always loved and admired physical skills and strength, but always thought it was too hard to achieve.
What changed? I realized that all that time it would take to try to learn something - that would take TOO LONG was going to pass anyway. It isnt like the clock stops when you think "well that would be nice but it would take to long". I had NOTHING to lose by working a little on some things. I either get there or not, but I am stronger, better and healthier for trying, not to mention the things I have picked seem REALLY fun to me. So it all seems like fun!
FIND SOMETHING YOU LOVE, something physical, and chase after it!! If you need ideas or help coming up with this - message me! #fighttheflufffitness will get you to me, and FB, Google, Google+ Pinterest, and IG :) Just click the hashtag to get to FB and message me :)
Clearly my quest to learn and master those six moves from my last post, is REALLY embedded in me!! I have some progress reports to share later in the week, so stay tuned!!
