Building a Pilar of Strength at Pure Power Bootcamp, NYC - Tour of Duty, Day 4

http://purepowerbootcamp.com/

Hello!
Ok, so day four of my Tour of Duty...
Oh how one week can change you... little did I know the adventure I was embarking on. I think the best word to describe day four would be "Courage"  as this day I realized these were not going to to be your ordinary gym sessions and there fore I had to muster up the courage and starting running with it. It was the beginning of building a pilar of strength... Courage, the 8th PPBC Leadership Principle.

Tour of Duty, Day 4:

Well today wasn't as mentally difficult yet it wasn't any easier. We are supposed to do these hurdles,wall climbing,and some over the wall stuff. I can't do any as I'm not very strong in my arms. Most of all this stuff I find to be pulling your own weight and I really can't do that. It all seems so crazy. I've been thinking of the quote at the bottom of the page - "getting out of your comfort zone" and have thought about what that means. Essencially by me doing so would really signify experiencing new things, new people, and getting out of my shell. Which technically could be fun. Even though this is hands down the most difficult physical thing I've ever done; since I already paid for it I think it would be really unproductive of me to just stop. I have to at least try and see what can occur if I just keep going. I do have to admit, it would be nice to be able to do all the hurdles and climb the three walls with out any help. That would be quite exciting if I say so myself. 

"Comfort is an illusion. A false security bred from familiar things and familiar ways. It narrows the mind, weakens the body  and robs the soul of spirit and determination. Comfort is neither welcome nor tolerated here"  -quote from a PPBC handout

"The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is to high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it."
