Motivation


I've been reading that many people are struggling with motivation. I have struggled with the same thing. The best thing I have found is, as Sifu Brinker has suggested, is to build in habits. If you always do pushups while you wait for the kettle, even on the days you don't feel like doing it, you'll do pushups while the kettle boils. The difficulty I have found is that your day never goes according to plan. I can't say that at 1pm I'm going to do some form reps because I never know what will be going on then. What I can do is plan that when I'm making dinner, I'm going to do a form rep in the kitchen. It's about persistence and taking one day at a time. Even if you haven't done anything for months, if you wake up and do some pushups, your back on the way. Just keep trying.

Basic numbers: 204 pushups, 202 crunches, 208 kicks, 4 reps tai chi, 4 reps broadsword, 3 miles

Acts of kindness: gave the cat and dog a treat, made Mike breakfast and lunch, helped someone at work

Today I consumed: 2 boiled eggs, a brownie, 2 oranges, a bowl of oatmeal, some rice with tuna and green beans and some potato patties. I drank a cup of coffee and 8 glasses of water.
