What’s holding us back from doing this one simple thing (twice) every morning?

What’s holding us back from doing this one simple thing (twice) every morning? I weigh myself twice every morning. The second time is to confirm the first number. If they match, I’m done. If they do not, I weigh a third time.

Why? Because it teaches us (me) what each pound feels like. Over time the practice, repetition, and the focus teaches nuance and self-awareness.

I can feel a two-pound difference in either direction. Insane? No.

If you have ever experienced this level of daily awareness, you know it’s absolutely not insane.

Note: Currently 10 pounds over fighting weight. Have been for a year.

 

Run or study?

There are only a few massively iconic and admirably successful cultures

 

Go though the motions? Don’t worry too much about the quality because at worst it will be good.

Good and very good aren’t good enough in some cultures. But even then with no one watching it is so tempting to hit cruise control and just do a good job.

If good and very good aren’t good enough, you are either excellent or you are on auto pilot.

The run will have to wait until tomorrow.

Take what you can get is all we have sometimes. Each day we do not exercise makes not exercising tomorrow more acceptable and probable.

Happy to only get in a one mile run. And happy McDonalds was a 400 meter jog back to the hotel.
