1. What is in your mental arsenal?
- The solid understanding that all that matters is what I want to do and the resoluteness to follow through in doing it (this applies to more than just fitness though).
2. What/Who is your secret weapon in this battle?
- Myself. I've never been one to accept compromising myself or my views for anyone or anything and I'm often overly preoccupied with my own self. Left me very depressed/crazy during the teen years because I was evaluating myself based on other people's measurements. When it gets applied to fitness I simply refuse to compromise my diet/plan for anything (#3 is a footnote here though).
3. What/Who is your nemesis, your arch-enemy?
- I will probably be alone on this one, but definitely my parents/being "home" (home in the real sense is my apartment). Everytime I am "home" I have such a sense of overbearing pressure to be X or Y and lack of solitude that I lose all sanity and start to slip (opposite of #2) if I am "home" for more then two weeks. Soon as I get back to my place though all is well and I can rededicate to myself.
