This is my story of how weightlifting changed many aspects of my life for the better.]]> 2023-09-04 13:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683426826 hbarnet13 https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683431543 It started in July of 2022. I had been doing nothing but school and basketball training for about 3 years, I was getting D2 offers to play basketball, and all my hard work was starting to pay off. But for some reason, I felt I wasn't doing what was right for me, and I couldn't understand why. About a month later, I toured high point and everything made sense to me. I wanted to be in business. I made the risky decision to quit basketball and focus on business and pray I got accepted into high point. For a little while I felt lost, after quitting basketball I felt like I had lost my purpose, then I found weightlifting and everything fell into place.]]> 2023-09-04 13:31:03 UTC https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683431543 hbarnet13 https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683453263 After I had started weightlifting, it was like my whole life clicked into place, I knew exactly who I wanted to be and what I wanted to turn myself into. I wanted to turn myself into a man who was strong, went to a good college, and owned a company. Weightlifting made me realize who I was meant to become. Through the gym I met mentors who would help my company become successful, teach me valuable lessons about business and life, and teach me things that most men my age can't even imagine. Every time I felt lost or discouraged or felt my company was going to fall through, i would go lift weights and my mind would realize that i can do it. The gym was always there for me when I needed it.]]> 2023-09-04 13:52:20 UTC https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683453263 hbarnet13 https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683458537 Weightlifting also changed my mindset about everything. Every time I'm in the gym I listen to this song at least once. The gym made me realize that I have to attack every goal and project I have thinking I'm going to do great and succeed, no matter what it is or how difficult the task is. This mindset change completely skyrocketed my success rate.]]> 2023-09-04 13:57:15 UTC https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683458537 hbarnet13 https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683461646 In just a little over a year. The gym has completely changed who I am. It took me from a boy who was lost and didn't know what to do with his life, to a man who knows exactly what he wants out of life and knows how to get it. Because of the confidence and mindset changes lifting weights instills, it helped me do what was needed to get accepted into my dream college, and own a successful company. I have made myself, my parents, and the Lord proud, and that is the path I have always wanted to be on.]]> 2023-09-04 14:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/hbarnet13/2el440o2owf0lpjk/wish/2683461646
