FEEL OUT OF PLACE AT THE GYM? I DID.
I changed my mindset & embraced discomfort. #Mindset is the most important determiner of #success . When first @musclefactorybkk where strangers could see me, I felt like #MrChicken looks here. TOTALLY out of place, surrounded by people who all fit. I’m a #teacher.
So, I know well that #students #learn most effectively when challenged the just-right amount, to the edges of thier #comfortzone . I facilitate #learning conditions by #scaffolding (provide steps) the parts of learning where #learners might experience too much tension. We aim to find the “just-right” #nextsteps so students can feel confident & minimally #vulnerable outside their comfort zone.
Before getting a #gym membership, I needed help to articulate the steps to move my #mindset & #skills to the just-right place where I felt #confident enough in myself. I had a #trainer /#coach come to me 3 afternoons a week for 6 months. He taught me loads & challenged me every session. I learnt the basic movements, how to be careful of with #form & the #skills I needed to be confident enough to be outside my comfort zone.
Yes, I still felt like a giant Mr Chicken on a plane to Paris - out of place - when I went for a #workout. BUT, I was #confident enough I was doing the right things. I changed my mindset, embraced the discomfort, practiced what I had learnt & took my #fitnessjourney to the next level.
You can too!
