Overconfidence

I feel like I've maybe been a bit overconfident lately. Mentally, I've been in a really good place and I've felt like training hasn't been a lot of effort recently. My shoulders have been a bit better and I was pounding out a lot of situps, which when I was starting out, were tough for me to do. The Forms Seminar was a really good day for me and I had a lightbulb go off for me that afternoon. 

When we had our team meeting on Saturday Sifu Brinker asked who was having trouble and I didn't put up my hand. I still don't really feel like I'm having trouble but I'm realizing that keeping momentum is not easy. I tried to pump out 1000 Situps and Kicks last weekend but I ran out of gas on Sunday. I was a bit sore as a result and I haven't done much training for a few days. One of the things that I've been getting better at is recognizing slumps right away and trying to stomp them out right away. Keeping up with my journaling and training while working out of town is pretty challenging for me but it's definitely helping to tune my mental game.
