(Remember) Two Things

I just got a project at the wall tonight that I’ve been trying for a while and I had two thoughts about it.

First, in thorny situations I often faff around trying to best position myself, make better use of the holds, etc. when I should just accept that it’s tough and that the next move will be taxing. The second thought is that I have to believe I can do the next move. So much of climbing for me is mental, especially when I am pushing myself; however sometimes believing in yourself is the hardest part.

While you lie around
With hands up and down
So resigned you will fall down...
