Day 2: Another small step
I have an idea of printing out a calendar an marking it up showing the days that I say I will take action and not marking the days that I don’t. I want to hold myself accountable in many ways and with many plans that I have made for myself. Clearly it’s been a roller coaster ride with highs and lows at each point.
I’ve been listening to motivational speeches, 2 minute clips of someone I learned sales from. From someone whom I would model in terms of how they approach sales, but with that said there are other behaviors that I abhor to. But these audio clips that I listen, albeit some regurgitate information from other self-help books I’ve read, I still value since they do help with me while I’m in the car or going on a run at the gym.
I ran today for a total of 10 minutes. 1 minute warm up on speed 3 and 9 minutes of pure running on speed 7 and 8, depending on how quickly I could keep up with treadmill. That’s where I am today, but I started running at speed 5 taking me 15 minutes to run a single mile. This was about 2–3 months ago and one of the reasons why I’m working on being consistent. If I hadn’t STARTED, and if I never WANTED to be in a healthier part of my overall life, I would’ve never acted. I’d just be the skinny guy that people see outwardly, but inwardly I’d be a mess.
Any step, is better than no step but the steps you take better be in the direction you want to go..otherwise you’ll end up like so many others. Lost.
