Discomfort

As you know, I have been listening to the book, "Can't Hurt Me," by David Goggins.

One of the things that David talks about a lot is the fact that we need to do something uncomfortable every single day...

Something that sucks.

Examples:

If you walk a mile every day, walk a mile and a half today.

Study for an extra hour today.

Call that person and have the conversation today.

Stop smoking today.

Do ten extra push ups today.

Whatever it is, do it.

He also talks about the 40% rule.

Basically, when we feel like we can't go anymore, that is our body telling us that we have given about 40%.

Now it's time for our mind to kick in and do the rest.

We still have 60% to give.

Last night, I called Mike on my way home from my lash appointment.

We had originally agreed to MEET at the gym when I was done.

You see, if I go home first - I won't want to go to the gym anymore.

He said, "Okay, I'll meet you at the gym."
I moaned.

He said, "Great! See you there."

If he hadn't held me accountable for what I had set forth as my goal, I would not have gone.

Why?
It sucks to go to the gym when you're tired.

Go anyways!
I always feel so much better after a great workout.
