I cannot help but always take situations in life and compare them to TV Shows or other things a lot of the time.
I guarantee you've done the same thing at least once. For the most part there's always at least one moment, every day I can take and compare to a moment in The Simpsons.
My latest comparison though may sound off, but once I explain, maybe you'll think "ooooh, this lad isn't completely messed in the head...just yet."
It came to me after my radio show Tuesday night. I tried doing phoners...FINALLY! And I must say the experience went better than I thought it would thanks to the guidance of Scott George. It's now something I will be doing on a regular basis on Tuesday nights.
Anyways, aside from the phoners, I felt the show was lackluster in my performance. I stumbled on words, and did not feel "in my groove". It was bugging me because I love doing shows, it's so much fun, but I continued to grow with frustration over not giving 110%.
As I was driving home from school after I had finished, I thought to myself, "That really sucked, what was wrong with me?" and soon after reminded myself that there's nothing I can do to change how it went, and that tomorrow was another day with another show (which went better...I felt anyways. More on this in a bit.)
I could not help but think that "you know what? Even Forrest Griffin has lost fights here and there, but he can still be considered one of the greats going today in the UFC." Yes, I went there, I compared my performance in radio, to a UFC fighters performance in the Octagon.
I had "lost my fight" Tuesday night, but I was gonna look past it, and learn from it to win the next one.
Today went smooth, I felt calm and ready to take it on again.
To relate it to a UFC fight, I would say I won the fight today, but by judges decision, I didn't have that dominating performance, not yet anyways, and that's the goal now.
A win may be a win, but it's how you get it is what matters.
The next time I step into that studio, I'm going for the knockout
