Strive to be better than yourself.

Strive to be better than yourself.
Don’t train to beat someone or to win a medal or to earn a belt.
Train to be better than you were yesterday. You can only be the best version of yourself. Don’t try to be better than someone else.
When you train, have the intention to improve some aspect of yourself. Improve this stance or do one more push-up. Improve your mental focus or breathing.
Improve your attitude to training and you will improve.
With this view of training you will find benefits in your whole life.
