放肆

就放肆爱放肆追　放肆去闯
放肆是我的信仰
再不去闯　梦想永远只会是一个梦

想太多又想太重的梦想
还不如干脆不多想
每一个邪恶的浪都会有浪花绽放
我确定边冲边欣赏
如果要我们都活在地上
偏偏我就想要飞翔
要挣脱命运捆绑　要推翻磨砺围墙
要站上巨人的肩膀

梦想永远是逆向　一路都有人阻挡
人们说的荒唐　却是我的　心中的天堂

就放肆爱　放肆追　放肆去闯
放肆的大闹一场
不能原谅　如果很多年后我还是这样
就放肆爱　放肆追　放肆去闯
放肆是我的信仰
再不去闯　梦想永远只会是一个梦想

哥伦布只要有一颗星光
就胆敢横越大西洋
我还有一把吉他　我还有一群死党
为什么还不大声唱
达尔文假设生命是战场
就让我轻易不投降
把伤痕装满手掌　把不顺装满心脏
把歌声装满肺活量

梦想永远是逆光　只有坚硬的模样
会有什么心结　什么体验　不要只猜想
就放肆爱　放肆追　放肆去闯
放肆的大闹一场
不能原谅　如果很多年后我还是这样
就放肆爱　放肆追　放肆去闯
放肆是我的信仰

再不去闯梦想永远只会是一个梦想

5 Days

Day 1
Part 1 - Operation ASICS
Burned a RM400 hole to get "New Arrival" Forza Gel.

Substance over hole!

A hard dose of Yam before match! =P

Part 2 - DLDC Day 1
Hard fought victory over Hurricanes. Great match against APAC comrades.

Adrenaline rush till 3am...

Day 2
Part 1 - Div 2

Super line strategy to gain victory versus Saberz Alpha reveals lack of squad depth.

Part 2 - DLDC Day 2
Fast and furious style rushing and lost the deciding group match versus Rascals. Still far from bracing the impact!

Referee an ice hockey match which ended into a boxing match. A contender for match of my life!

Day 3 - Hurricane Match 1
Return of the golden oldies + SDT versus Hurricane. Slick team move from the oldies and a very blur hattrick. Best match for a very long long time. SDT still with the same old receiving flaw, improving though.

Day 4 - Hurricane Match 2
Big kite flying day with 8 players turning and force to play referee Pei Li. Crawled back to a draw from 4 down. Not too bad but very very drained.

Enjoyable bonding session of Laksa, Bean Curd and Soya. ^^

Day 5 - State Development Training

Totally tired. Could barely run.

Left my wallet on top of my car while in deep thought about the missing lock. Lucky that there are still good men out there who called(via my name card) and return me my wallet. THANK YOU! =D

Satisfied. Disappointed. Proud. Shocked. Fun. Tired. Drained. Fatigue. Exhausted. Grateful.

World Class Mentality

We might be beaten by skills.
We might be outrun, out muscled.
Yet, the one place we shall never be beaten,unless we beat ourselves up; is the HEAD.

Belief in insufficient, live it and lead it.
Discipline & consistency makes World Class Mentality.

And World Class Mentality is the first step to become world class.
In fact, you are already world class!

The next level?
Train with the same kind of mentality!

Believe

It's a start to a new season.

New objective.

New goal.

New strategies.

New team.

New leaders.

New players.

It has been a rough start. Recruitment was not great. Names were penned but faces did not showed. After a seasons or two, you tend to get use to it and move on. It's better to work within your means than to hope what might be. No point dwelling on the uncertain.

Resources were thin. 10 outfield players and 2 goalies.

Preparations were limited. Twice, if remembered correctly, the full squad (10) was available for training.

Nonetheless, constraints were even across the league. Everyone has their own pile of s.h.i.t. to handle, so no complains. Yet the schedule sucks. 4! 4 morning, 1st game out of 5. What luck!

Well. Things couldn't get any worst I guess. Except it was. And Worst soon became underrated. If having 2 lines of 5 was not bad enough, losing 2 more to Co curriculum activities was. Double the blow when your player forgot, after constant and sufficient reminder, to bring his IC... It pissed me off!!

But, no time for that. In face of adversity, rather than taming the animal, it is time to unleash it!!!

Winners win but winning does not make you a winner!

So, are you are winner? Your actions will tell.

Some were convinced, some were not.

Some were fiery and determined, some were confused and lingering.

Soon we were down by 1 and I feared the worst to be honest. Yet, despite LiveSTRONG's constant bombardment, somehow we manager to survive.

We took the beating head on, miraculously survive the mere inches and wasteful sitters, which fuel the players confidence. As the game when on, the tide switched. By the end of the 2nd period, 7 was chasing down 17. From zero shots, a handful shot on goals were mustered. And in the 3rd, the unexpected happened, we equalised!

It was a mixture of relieve, proud and happiness.

So focus was I on the match, it was then I realised we were minutes away to pulling away from an upset. And we did.

Looking back, I was very proud of the players, even if we had succumb to defeat, the attitude and reaction on court were sufficient enough to convinced me that they are truly winners. The process rather than the destination was a far more accurate assessment of what they were made of. They will make a hell of a team if they are willing to train.

The real eye opener was that I finally had a real live, first hand experience on the impact of motivation and the massive difference of believing.

The ability you thought you did not acquire.

The outcome you thought you could not achieve.

The limit which you though was your limit.

Systematic analysis was crap and logical justifications were illogical.

Believe and all shall be possible.

Question is, will you?

Breaking 50

Been struggling with my free weight bench press since joining gym in May 2010. There seems to be a unbreakable barrier to break pass 50lbs. The fear of losing grip and having the squash by the weight was to fearsome to overcome. Plain frustrating.

Finally, enough was enough. And the breakthrough came.

Sunday, as usual, its chest day. Warmed up a little on the bike, headed over to the weight section, did a little 30lbs warm up. Felt good. OK! Lets face the fear and overcome it. Today!

Second round. 50lbs. Feeling good.

Third round. For the first time.. 70lbs. I feel the power~
Struggling but still very much manageable.
Now, I am tempted to entertain the unthinkable. Another stride over the newly marked limit?

OK!! But precautions first.
Adjusted the safety.
Added on the weights. 5lbs each.
Lied down with my eyes fixed on the bar.
Breathing hard in and out.
Focus. Focus. Focus.
And lift!

Yes. 80lbs for 8 reps!
A small deal for most but a great personal achievement for myself.
After nearly 10 months joining gym, a personal milestone set.
Now I am one more step closer to my 10 full chin up goal.
Let's keep on going!! ^^
