Not Today

Posted on January 28, 2026 by Steve Ainslie

After having a few weeks of making steady progress with my injures I had a setup today. I’m so sick of talking about this that I’m not getting its the details.

It’s annoying, painful and will likely stall my progress for a while. And that’s in the best case scenario.

After it happened, I worked through various disaster scenarios in my head. I tried to calm my racing mind. I told myself I would not allow myself to get despondent. I even realized that for the first time in a long time I felt afraid.

What helped me move forward was remembering that I have a plan if everything goes to shit in my life.

Today is not that day.
