The end of another week, I say that knowing I will still be working tomorrow. I always class Saturday as a day I have volunteered to work overtime even though it’s just part of my six day week. It’s my mental kidology, my way of pushing through and projecting myself that little bit further. I did it if I was ever training, the best example was being on a treadmill. Some days you could switch off and run for 40 minutes and the time would just pass. Other days you would get on the treadmill and after 5 minutes you would be struggling and your 35 minutes away from your goal. This is where the art of kidology comes in, you reset yourself what is seemingly a more rational goal. I would mentally say to myself make it to 15 minutes and you can finish. As the 15 minute approaches you then reset another target to say get to 20 minutes it’s only 5 minutes away. I would then constantly reset my goal every 5 minutes until I got to 40 minutes. It would never be my best or fastest run, but the power it gave you mentally could literally take you to another level. Every run after that seems easier, because you’ve been to the depths of your physical ability and pulled out what is needed to hit your goal.
This kidology also crosses over to other aspects of life. If your having a bad day, if you can dig deep and find a way to the end of the day. Tomorrow might just be an easier day. Our minds are so powerful, yet sometimes we need to fool our minds to achieve our potential. When you are physically tired, it’s your mind that makes you stop not your body. Your thoughts will over ride your physical ability, convince your mind to carry on for another 5 minutes or 10 minutes and keep doing this for as long as you can and you will find a mental resilience you never thought you were capable of.
Not just a postman.
