So far so good, and after some hurdles (and a VERY late acceptance) I’ve made my first few step towards becoming a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT for short). A quick nod at my bio will have you notice that I mention being a Personal Trainer. I have been one for 10 years, and I’ve always enjoyed it. I’m looking at RMT as the next step in progressing as an individual who loves the human body. I’ve always believed in proper rehabilitation and pre-exercise maintenance, and I see massage therapy as a deeper and more encompassing level of that idea.
My goals for this course are simple;
To gain a better understanding of the human body (hopefully far beyond what I know now).
To extend my capabilities in order to provide more services, and finally
To use this opportunity as a stepping stone towards my future goals, beyond student life.
I see my goals as quick, easily executable and fairly common. If I’m being honest, I tend to be a bit of a procrastinator. Not at all too much, but I find myself falling behind little by little, from time to time, due to my own negligence. That’s definitely going to change in order for me to be as successful as possible. Since we’re on the topic of honesty, the greatest way for me to successful is to take a step back, review everything I’m learning, and keep an open mind. I have a tendency to approach challenges with nonchalance (aka overconfidence…). And although that makes me a relatively stress free guy, it sometimes hinders my abilities to make leaps and bounds in my success.
I believe it’s important to have a clear goal in mind, even if the road to success is full of twists and turns, and even some accidents of our own making. Being aware of my own strengths and weakness will always direct me towards my goals, and I can always say that with confidence!
