The Choice
November 19th, 2009There used to be days when I didn’t feel compelled to work out because I was tired or simply had too many matters that required my attention. However, when I took a moment to think about the myriad of individuals that didn’t have the same luxury of choice in this matter, my feelings rapidly changed. Viewing exercise from this perspective, helps to serve as a reminder that it is a positive experience and not one that should be begrudge or regarded as punishment. I am lucky enough to be in great health and able to exercise daily. Sadly, not everyone is this fortunate due to either debilitating physical and mental disabilities or severe health issues. When you find motivation waning, stop, take a moment and visualize a day where you may not be so fortunate to have this choice. All too often we take these things for granted. Be thankful you are able to be physically active and don’t let your choice slip away.
