Ways to get motivated?

What are some ways tog et motivated and just literally pissed off while your working out sparring, figting? Do you think about all the people who said you cant, The kid who always did btter than you what? Or do you just listen to Mama said knock you out by LL Cool J over and over?

i listen to music:

Man Up - Sticky Fingaz
Let’em Fight - Ali and Gipp
Stuff like that

also, i think about the girl of my dreams, why i can’t have her, and why i should. builds emotion, and boom, i’m in the zone

i dont try and get ‘mad’… that leads to doing stupid things and taking your eye off the ball so to speak.

if i feel myself taking the foot off the gas, i just think about some chav drinking a can of stella and waiting to start a fight on a friday night… enough motivation to hit the bag for me ;D

train harder than your opponent and dont let emotions get into play, they make you do stupid things lol

Watching the Rocky Anthology always helps me. :wink:

I always thought about how many hours I spent in the gym practicing punching other people and I thought about how much damage I could do with my hands. Then I would think about the other guy and how he was spending the same hours practicing the same things to do the same damage; since I didn’t want to be the target off the damage he could do with his hands, I would be VERY motivated to avoid it.

mate, geetting really pissed off isnt a great idea, you lose your cool. we got a kid in our gym whos really fast, and a good counterpuncher. but he gets pissed really easily, loses his cool and goes to shit, he tries to hit you with some huge ass shots, which doesnt work. you see them coming and just smack him about more.

i fantasize about myself being the world heavyweight champ and everyone else admires my fighting skills and most people are scared to be in the ring with me. that pumps me up every time.
