アレックス・ジョンソンさんのインスタグラム写真 - (アレックス・ジョンソンInstagram)「This year has been a trip. My outlook at the beginning of the season was pure excitement, confidence, and positivity. I was happy to be back competing, and to prove it was where I belonged. But throughout the year, self-doubt and bitterness began creeping in for numerous reasons, and my attitude became negative and jaded. It affected my climbing pretty drastically. Everything felt dark and heavy. Comps weren’t going my way and I felt like I couldn’t have a good session and wasn’t making any progress with training. Only now looking back am I able to recognize the funk I was in. I still have off days and grumpy days, but something’s changed. I finally realized I had control. Only I could change my outlook. Instead of sitting and stewing in the shit, I’ve been moving my attitude towards feeling light, and I’m starting to feel like me again. I definitely need to continue to be aware and proactive with this mentality, but I’m grateful for the redirection. And relieved, honestly. Being grumpy is exhausting. Thanks for pushing me and sticking it out with me, @breezy0811. (And taking sick photos.) ONWARD!!」10月14日 22時47分
