Crafting

As I work with an individual with much more knowledge about training one’s body, pushing the limits, and building core strength, I find myself in a state of constant discovery.  As I looked at an individual push themselves to the edge, I had two questions for my source of knowledge.  Is this person training correctly?  Are they strong?

“Yes, sound and disciplined training methods.  Very strong!”

As I watched a bit longer, an example of how one can balance core strength development with body building began to emerge.  I was seriously impressed!  Superficially, one might assume that this individual was fit but nothing more.  On closer examination, I realized how much work had gone into getting and staying in shape.  The foundation was solid.  The quiet approach with no fanfare admirable.

The techniques and method of crafting have lingered with me.  The example shown sits comfortably in the echo of an excerpt from a psalm; “You were forged a strong scepter by God of Zion; now rule, though surrounded by enemies!” (Psalm 110.02)

One can be disciplined even if others that are not.  As weights dropped on the floor and different pieces of equipment were left with excess weights and sweat, one can quietly go about one’s business.  It does not take much effort to put your weights back where they belong and to leave the used equipment clean.

One can be intentional even if others are not.  It is possible to anticipate, aspire, plan, and execute while others randomly go about their business.  One’s core responsibility starts with one’s self.  Helping others is step two.

Establishing a foundation and building on it is at the heart of raising a superstructure.  Endless clichés remind us of small steps to big ones and variations on the theme.

Routines with discipline and thought were on display. This example reminded me that great results take time, work, and perseverance.  I would do well to watch, reflect, and incorporate the lessons on display into my journey.  The desired destination can seem impossible; one individual reminded me that it is not.
