Don’t like working out? Listen up!

No citizen has a right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training.
What disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.
Socrates

Birthday post, *yay* 🙂 This is a personal one, for sports is a pretty important topic to me and I love talking about it.

You are young and capable! As long as you are not physically handicapped you have no reason for not working out. It does not even count to say “I don’t like it”. If you told your parents you didn’t like studying in high school they were damn right to make you so either way.

With physical exercise it is almost the same but there is no one to kick your ass if you back out. So you have to be the one kicking your own ass, you have to be the one that tells yourself: Keep it up, feel a little pain daily but a lot of strenght in the long term.

The benefits are endless! Not only will you life healthier, you will also feel more confident, be more happy and less stressed. Sports and exercise are perfect for everyone and there is such a diversity of sports that you definitely will find something you peronally like!

I challenge you to start worling out immediately, starting with this day! On top of that, drink lots of tasty, tasty water. Why? This is not a diet you say and I agree. But water and training will increase your well-being and as important as that your well-feeling extremely. So start today, don’t even THINK about excuses, I dare you! Get up, put on your shoes, start running, put on your swim gear, start swimming, get on the floor, start push-ups. Start now and do not stop, make this a damn beautiful habit!

Give happiness

There are two ways to spread happiness; either be the light who shines it or be the mirror who reflects it.

Edith Wharton

Happiness is a positive thing. People are attracted to it. You want to sorround yourself with happy people, not with sad people. So you can do you best to amplify happiness at all times.

Either by just being happy and living a happy life or by reflecting other people’s happy lives. Talk about your achievements, talk about their achievements. Laugh about your failures, don’t dwell on mistakes, be bright, always have a smile in your sleeve!

Everyone wants to be happy so just help them out by showing them how easy it is! Smile, enjoy, be careless, have fun and others will join in!

The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.

Confucius

Action without prior thinking is not okay, but no action is not recommendet either. You have to act, only through your actions you can make a difference. Don’t brag about your achievements or stress people out by always talking about your plans. Speak less of your plans and instead get more of them done!

Having good plans is awesome. Being a good organizing mind is useful. But you have to follow through to make a difference.

You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do.

Henry Ford

Don’t plan and forget, don’t promise and neglect. Instead focus on your ideas and plans and get them to work.

Leadership!

A good leader takes a little more than his share of the blame, a little less than his share of the credit.

Arnold Glasgow

A good leader is not the loudest person of the group. It is the one that puts in the most work, the most preparation and the one who takes the blame if anything goes wrong.

He gives all people the feeling to be achievers themselves and works harder than anyone else without wanting extra credit for it.

Read!

Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.

Sir Richard Steele

Reading is so important. It is not only an exercise that will bring you advantages, it is also damn enjoyable. Be it educative information or just a novel, you should always read at least one good book! But reading is even more.

How many a man has dated a new era in his life from the reading of a book.

Henry David Thoreau

Think about how books have defined you in the past. Think about books that really changed you, books that really got under your skin. Those books are to be honoured and they are to be found so you must never stop reading everyday! There are enough awesome books to give you more than a lifetime of enjoyable reading time.

Reading will not only give you joy and pleasure but a great advantage in life experience. Yes, making own experiences is worth infinitively more, but you can not experience more than a lifetime by that. Books enhance your experience in a pretty fast time and give you much information you would have never found out yourself.

Be different than the others by making wishes come true.

This quote coming from a man who failed million shots in his life and was even kicked out of the high school bastketball team for being to bad is damn inspiring and helps you realize that you can do it!

Never discourage anyone…..who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.

Plato

Don’t discourage people that are working on themselves! Motivate them or leave them alone but don’t you dare to speak low of someone who actually tries and makes a difference, no matter how small.
