Winning Is Fun!
Are you a whiner or a winner? Whiners aren’t having much fun because they’re focused on what they don’t like and overlook the good. Winners recognize what’s working well and keep doing it.
I love working out, so I push myself to get uncomfortable. Muscle fatigue the day after feels great to me because it signifies a win in my life. Wins improve my mood and make it easy to have fun.
Not everyone is enamored with working out. And if you don’t like working out, that’s OK. But you still need to do it. I don’t like going to the dentist, but I go because I’m pursuing a win. Having a mouth full of rotting teeth would mean I’m losing at the dental game, and that wouldn’t be fun at all.
When you’re getting a positive outcome, it means you’re winning. It’s fun when you walk with a long stride and an upright posture. It’s fun when your skin is supple and vibrant. It’s fun when you look 10 years younger than your age. Working out is a tiny price to pay for all that fun. So, from now on, instead of whining about the process, why not start pursuing the wins?
