Square One

Words written in a place where it's inhabitants never ignore, forget, or discount the significance of the details, the small things, the basics...

We must no longer ignore our shortcomings. If potential is to be maximized it's time to take a few steps back. Before we can proceed to a higher level, we must peel back the facade, look beneath the skin, and tear it all down so that the existing foundation may be examined and seen for what it truly is.
The wrecking ball has arrived and it's demolition day.
Now is the time to become intimate with our weaknesses so that one by one they may be eliminated and their number reduced.

    For form, not for time. Working on my double under technique, trying to stay completely vertical and hop in good rhythm. It is amazing how bad my form must have been, I am sore. Looking forward to the rest of the rebuilding and the many days to come.
