Good morning groovy souls!
The hardest battles are within the mind. Today I woke up and did not want to run, I wanted to be lazy
I took a deep breath, went to the gym, and did what I do everyday, six days a week.
About 40 minutes in, I was still feeling like I wanted to stop, so I played the same game I did with myself on the trail. "Go another mile, see how you feel."
Will is infinite, it's our patience that wears thin. Persistence trains that patience, just like weights trains the body.
This is where motivation falls short. There will always be a day where the motivation to hold back, will be stronger than the motivation to push forward.
With focus and determination though, that will not matter.
