π In 2012, my world changed with a leg fracture that required the restructuring of my tibia, fibula, and ankle. The fear of returning to the football field haunted me. But on Saturday night, I faced that fear with my friend Mina's church team in a 5-a-side game. It's a big step for me, following my 2017 Tough Mudder victory post-trauma. π We all have giants to face, and no matter how much fear we feel, it's essential to confront them. The soreness is temporary; the strength and courage gained are lasting. π

My gorgeous Wife π
Is wrapping up some special gifts for Christmas. She has been wrapping a few bespoke hand made soy wax candles for a good few years and they come in so many incredible aromas.
Candles outside of working out especially when π§ββοΈ meditating plays a huge part in my day because when you take that time out to unwind it takes away all the stress.
So if you want to smell some incredibly uplifting aromas such as peony and blush Suede, Fireside and Spa inspired scents then

This Is More Than Just A Progress Photo! ReallyπΈ
The fact is, we're all different! We don't all need to get a wide chest & lean abs to be happy.π¦π¦πΌπ¦πΎπ¦πΏ
I still have to say if we make continual progress in some way or another, it does make us happy.
..............
We first must not derive our happiness from appearance but from our internal world.β
Now there are 2 things I find people doing that puts so much pressure on them and causes a lot of pain.π«
The First One Is
*THE COMPARISON GAME*π
We were all created in Gods Image So yes we are all uniquely and wonderfully made. Its important to know that who you are internally impacts who you are on the outside so its a must to build from the inside out, not from the outside in. I by that I mean, guard your mind tactfully.
This means your thoughts, your emotions and your choices should be thought through at all times.
*Lack Of Belief*π
Now maybe you're scrolling tgrough Instagram, facebook or tik tok looking at all of these painted lives and bodies who project a false reality but you don't know the battles everyone faces.
Someone could have that perfect to you body but their life is a mess.
Vs
The other a perfect life but there body doesn't say they do ab crunches or push ups.
ALL SAID, NO ONE IS PERFECT
Ask yourself this question:
1) Are your feelings created by thoughts that are for you or against you
2) Are you surrounding and starting your day from an angle that invites the right thoughts into your head?
3) And are you doing something in response to your thoughts that is physical enough to give you the desires of your heart?
If you are, you will be more fulfilled in who you are as a person.π
I have opened up a schedule to help you find clarity in why you want to get in shape to give you more desire to do so. The link in my Insta bio or can be accessed at www.osafofitness.com/bookings

What's the most Fun Thing You've Done This Quarantine? π
I'm often amazed at how easy it is for someone to say they're bored. My mind is always exploring the possibilities of what I could accomplish.
Its amazing how things have changed as of recent and how it influences our lives.
Though there are so many things out of our control, the very thing we can control is how we view life.
I wake up in the morning with gratitude for my wife (pictured) and family. I start with appreciating what I have and the possibilities of what awaits.
My mind being primed as I start the day with meditation and focus on God then some exercise along with prayer and breakfast ensures I enjoy life everyday.
So everyday, start with gratitude.
PS, if you're yet to get on a coaching call. Hit the link in my bio and lets set up a plan that works towards your physique and mindset goals being accomplished.

STOP SEARCHING AS IF THE WORLD OWES YOU
We are like instruments, we all look different, sound different, ensemble different yet we search for what the other gives us.
Have you ever been to a jazz night??? πΊπ·πΉπ
So good right? You hear the instruments helping each other and they sound incredible when they explore more and more ways to play like they're one SOUND.
Then comes the solos. We get to hear and see the atmosphere change with each changing sound.
Is that not like us? All different yet our skills can easily serve another.
We can't possibly gain a thing if we think that others owe us. Why not play together at the GIG, Help the other SOUND better. And in helping, you'll be lifted higher whilst bringing joy to others.
If you know someone with a skill, tage them save and share this post
