First of all, powerlifting is an individual sport and as such it offers much greater personal development than group sports. It is a sport where you compete against yourself, which is always the hardest component to beat. Therefore this desire to overcome what you previously were both as an athlete and person drives you to be very committed and work hard.
Powerlifting requires you to have a mental projection of yourself in the future all the time. The goal oriented philosophy makes you give your best to achieve what you set in the first place. Without planning your schedule around these goals you will never be able to achieve even a fraction of them. That is why the mental image in powerlifting must be rock solid. This also helps in an everyday life, where you can apply your work habits created through powerlifting.
