PROBLEM SOLVING

What is a workout; a competition? It's just a continuous presentation of problems. "Your emotional response to those problems will bring you either success or failure". If you expect to 'game' a workout and everything go smoothly, you're likely in for an awakening. We have to learn to be good problem solvers. We have to decide to control that emotional response when the game plan goes out the window. 

-Problems bring out greatness
-You choose the way they affect you
-Everybody is mentally tough when there are no problems; problems are a true test of that emotional response (which is a skill; not inherited)
