There will never be an ideal start time. There is no perfect scenario where everything lines up for anyone to take charge. Delusional thinking of "I will start Monday or January 1st" is a passive existence.

We are not here to be passive. We are not here to merely exist. Go time is not in a week or next year. THE TIME IS NOW.

Listen to many of these champions and what they say about being proactive on your goals NOW.

Now is The Time | NO EXCUSES

Mastering your own mind takes self awareness and a quiet controlled power that can only be harnessed through intense, consistent effort.

Guy Cisternino knew what he wanted to do as a career a long time before inspiration and motivation could be readily searched and accessed through social media. He had to over come the self doubt, knowledge barriers and moments of uncertainty over and over and over to get to the peak of his career as a professional bodybuilder.

In making himself impervious to the negativity that the internet has to offer and one of the most popular bodybuilding personalities in the IFBB, Guy also managed to positively influence masses of people over a bodybuilding career that has lasted for over 20 years.

When it comes to Guy's own accolades, it is a fact that he had an amazing career as a pro bodybuilder. When it comes to the impact he had on a vast amount of people who have looked up to him and seeked out motivation, inspiration and knowledge it is a fact that Guy has built and continues to build on a legacy!

Many times when the going gets tough in life, this question arises.

Leland Devaughn Jr. is an IFBB Pro, BUT before that, he is a man who knows who he is, what his core values are and what he wants in life. He linked up with GASP, Better Bodies and Gaspari because the core values matched with his own, he ran with it and continues to execute on what he wants to bring to the table WITHOUT waiting.

"You need to create the opportunity. If you're going to survive, you need to go and get YOURS. On one end you have GASPARI, passion. GASP and Better Bodies - RELENTLESS. They are one and the same."

Here we link up with TEAM Gaspari for an "untraditional" gym takeover and some foundational, proactive philosophy talk on making moves without continually waiting for all the stars to align.

"I am with GASP forever. I am with Gaspari forever. WHY? Because there is no point in me leaving when there core values are the same as mine."

Find out who you are, what you value and align yourself with people, groups and TEAMS that match who you are and where you want to go.

A Timeless Division | Brady King

2 different mindsets from a scarcity or abundant perspective.

Here we caught the Texas Pro champion Iain Valliere training with rookie pro Martin Fitzwater who placed fourth at the Texas Pro behind Iain, Steve Kuclo and the Jamaican Tank Phil Clahar.

Though Martin will no doubt become an ultra high caliber IFBB Pro that will gun for the same title as Iain, that didn't phase the opportunity he took to train with "the kid" and to build on the sport of bodybuilding.

"I love the bodybuilding days when the guys in Golds Venice would train together and pose together and build each other up. That is what I want bodybuilding to come back to."

Iain is preparing for the Olympia now and Martin is taking another full year to improve and dominate next year.

When people with common core values and missions link up on the same trajectory the effects and outcome are amplified.

John and Renee have a passion for setting a new standard for bodybuilding and empowering people with the proper knowledge to excel physically.

John explains how bodybuilding and establishing a deep emotional connection with his approach to the lifestyle has opened up overwhelming opportunities.

"Find what you are passionate about and chase it with all that you have. There has to be a deeper level than just a status, or instagram, or money. There has to be a deeper level "why."

We are stoked to be working with John and Renee Jewett. Visit the John Jewett University J3UNIVERSITY.COM to check out how they are redefining the potential of trainers and coaches.

Chasing your passion with all that you have, you can't really fail. There is no option for that. Don't give yourself excuses. If you just go at it with everything you, there's no way you cant be successful.

Martin Fitzwater is one of the sports most passionate competitors and this being his professional debut, there were a ton of very high feelings all week with him, Brett Wilkin, Ivana and the GASP and Better Bodies team during our epic content week.

Martin grabbed the week by the horns from Sunday prior to the Texas Pro until Tuesday after. It was a non stop action packed week. Check out his pro debut experience, what he took from the whole week and what he plans moving forward.

Dont Give Yourself Excuses - Martin Fitzwater

"If I am an outsider looking in first and foremost I would be a doubter. Meaning, there's no way a bantam weight is EVER going to win the Olympia. Again, looking at it as an outsider, I would say, that guy is too small. There is no way for him to put on that much muscle to be competitive let alone win the Olympia. For me, I have always been that guy that I would do what ever it takes to win and be my absolute best."

"When I started off as a bantamweight in 2012 when I turned pro, again everyone doubted me. They said hey your career is over. You're too small. You're never going to win a pro show. You're never going to be a good pro. You should just quit. Why waste your time?"

"I said look, if I made it this far to turning pro, who's to say that I cant continue on and be a good pro, make it to that first call out, win a pro show, even win the Olympia."

"I had a conversation with Flex Lewis, he kind of put it into perspective that I am in the history books as the 3rd 212 Mr. Olympia champion. No matter what happens from here on out, that can never be erased."

Shaun Clarida - Why Not Win The Olympia

It's amazing to see how one man can have this vision where most people couldn't believe it. He believed in his vision and fulfilled this grand stadium and its astonishing to see how all of time, effort and passion was realized. Just being able to see what ever you envision NO MATTER HOW HUGE and crazy, is 100% possible.

It's our second day of content week here at Destination Dallas, so we decided to take the gang down to the home of the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in in Arlington, Texas.

"Football was my favorite sport growing up. This was my avenue in life before bodybuilding. It was the same mindset I cultivated with football that transferred to bodybuilding." -Brett Wilkin

"Just walking out of the tunnel here in the stadium, I can imagine it will be a very similar feeling walking into the crowd at the Olympia." -Brady King

"That is what stuck with me the most, not just the fact that we were in this astonishing stadium but the reality that ANYTHING you have a vision and passion for in life is possible." - Ivana Wilkin

Crazy vision and aspirations are what we are all about. The crazy aspect and the fact that it is unbelievable to most gives the biggest pay off when YOU make progress towards these aspirations and ultimately make the impossible POSSIBLE.
