Yupp. Sorry to burst your bubble.
The fact that you're working your ass off everyday, doesn't mean you're gonna be making PRs everytime you decide you want to.
Yes, determination plays a part, planning plays a part.
but there're days you need to live by the motto, "Live to Fight another day".
What matters is that you win the war and not necessarily every battle isn't it?
People beat themselves up big time when they apparently don't make the lift.
They hate themselves for it.
I'd rather have the attitude of coming back stronger the next time.
It's not just a failed lift, it's also about how you react from it.
You can learn from your mistakes.
Every failure, can be attributed to a reason.
Wait, I take that back.
Every failure, can be attributed to several reasons.
If you look deep down, there may be reasons you never knew why you failed.
On the surface, it could be your technique which has flaws. Often the case for beginners.
Come closer, look deeper, you'll realize that the athletes mobility might have caused it.
Now go even deeper, perhaps there were distractions, a thousand and one things floating in the mind.
This is just a lifting analogy but you can imagine what problems cause your failures.
Don't just think, "Oh I didn't put in enough time in studying"
Did you work smart?
Was it productive and conducive.
Be critical about our lives.
So instead of making sure you win every single day.
You need these failures.
You need them to dig deep and find out why you've had troubles.
