Midseason invitationals are now in full swing, and quick times have popped up around the country. More will be produced in the coming weeks, while others will refocus and prepare for the next stage of the season. At this juncture of the season, it is critical that athletes buckle down in training and the weight room and find daily motivation.<\/p>\n

And, there are plenty of motivators out there to keep in the back of your mind when your alarm goes off for morning practice and your bed seems just too comfy to roll out of.<\/p>\n

Here\u00a0are 24 reasons tomorrow begins today…<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. That girl you out-touched at your championship meet? She will do everything she can to make sure that never happens again.<\/li>\n
  2. Because the team that beat your team overall deserved to win just as much as you did.<\/li>\n
  3. Because practice makes perfect.<\/li>\n
  4. Because you should be able to look back on your next season with no doubt that you did every single thing you could possibly have done in order to succeed. Starting today.<\/li>\n
  5. Because your competitors are working just as hard as you, if not harder.<\/li>\n
  6. The work you put in today will make the work tomorrow that much easier.<\/li>\n
  7. Swimming tends to have the snowball effect. All the work you put in now will be built off of for next season’s training.<\/li>\n
  8. Because progress all comes down to the little things.<\/li>\n
  9. Excellence is a habit, not simply a virtue.<\/li>\n
  10. Because technique takes time.<\/li>\n
  11. You can\u00a0want\u00a0<\/em>to get better all day long, but putting in the actual work every single practice\u00a0is what will get you there.<\/li>\n
  12. Because your teammates desire\u00a0success just as much as you do.<\/li>\n
  13. Because\u00a0“fake it ’til you make it”<\/em> has never and will never be a thing in swimming.<\/li>\n
  14. You should never get too comfortable with where you are at. There is always room for improvement.<\/li>\n
  15. Because having giant muscles is cooler than you think.<\/li>\n
  16. Because everyone carries an equal weight on your team. Your teammates rely on you just as much as you rely on them.<\/li>\n
  17. Because investing in yourself and buying in to the process produces favorable results.<\/li>\n
  18. It is never the wrong time to begin good habits.<\/li>\n
  19. Because swimming has a short-term memory. Win or lose last season, the only thing that matters now is the year that lies ahead.<\/li>\n
  20. The best way to get better at swimming\u2026is to swim.<\/li>\n
  21. Because challenging yourself to get better should not scare you, but ignite your craving for success.<\/li>\n
  22. Because every single day counts.<\/li>\n
  23. If you make it hurt now, by the time you get to your next championship meet, it will just be smooth sailing ahead.<\/li>\n
  24. Because there is nothing more satisfying than looking up at the scoreboard and seeing the results of your success light up.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
