Should you take a day OFF or keep pushing?

Take it easy.

You deserve a day off.

Sit down and relax.

Put your feet up.

We all know these phrases.

No, I'm not going to say they are pointless and you need to hustle and grind all day every day until you can't walk, talk or stand..

What I want to say is this:

You need to work harder.

That doesn't mean you only sleep four hours per night.

Getting to bed early is PART of working harder, in my view.

Most folks don't move enough.

I rarely see anyone walking when I go for a walk, run, or bike ride.

Working harder is not just about time spent in the gym lifting weights.

Yes, that's important.

But there's more you need to do if you want to take your life to another level.

This morning I took a long walk.

I was going to turn around at one point, but I knew I had to keep going.

Just another morning overcoming those weak thoughts we all have.

I needed that quiet, alone time walking at a brisk pace.

Was it boring? Yes.

Do I love walking? No.

Movement is important but it's also about the COMMITMENT and DEDICATION.

Not allowing yourself an easy way OUT.

How many times during the day do you sit when you could be moving?

It's funny, the more you move, the more energy you have.

But you have to overcome that initial resistance.

That weak mental chatter that says you worked hard all week, you deserve some time on the couch.

You wanna watch golf on a Sunday afternoon? Fine. Do some bodyweight circuits during the commercials.

Or set up a bike in your man cave.

MOVE!

I can talk about all the health reasons you should be moving more, but you know them already.

Just as important in my mind, is the fact you took action. You punched that laziness in the face.

You said "not today. I won't give in to you weakness."

There's great satisfaction in that choice.

It's up to you.

The more you DO. The more you will be motivated to keep pushing.

Motivation comes and goes, so we can't rely on it.

When there's no motivation you need to find something within yourself that will not back down.

Something inside that rises up and refuses to lay down and become soft.

Harden up!

I know you can.

It starts with right now.

Do NOT wait until later.

The only way to prove to yourself that you are serious about it, is to take action IMMEDIATELY.

There is no tomorrow.
