“A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week.”
– General George S. Patton
Exercise. Everyone seems to be looking for the perfect, the most efficient, the next big thing. But really it is all about doing something now. Stop. Get down do 10 pressups, or as many as you can, then continue reading. Don’t wait til the end of the article. Just start now.
You don’t need new trainers or fancy equipment. What most of us need the most (and don’t get) is to feel uncomfortable through physical exertion.
Set up a timer for 10 mins. Do your best attempt at exercise. Pressups, squats, burpees, planks, run down the street, jog on the spot. Whatever. Just do as much as you can in 10 minutes. Then you’re done for the day. If you feel inspired write down what you just did. Otherwise get on with your day.
See you tomorrow for the same.
