Do you cost less than your car?

How much do you value yourself?

Now before you answer that question I will let you in on my own personal philosophy: Working out to me is a metaphor for how much one values themself. People take their cars in for oil changes every 3000-5000 kilometres but don't even step foot inside a gym every 6 months.

Working out to me is like brushing my teeth. If I don't do it I feel absolutely dirty. Should you feel the same way? Fuck Yeah!

People renovate their homes, make a nice garden and clean their house weekly but cannot even allot 3 hours a week to being active. The problem with today's society is the fact that most people value material objects moreso than they value their own health and wellbeing. They would rather invest their time into things rather than investing time into themselves.

What is the problem here?

When I talk to sedentary people about being more active and spending more time on themselves they tend to look at all the bad things involved with it rather than the benefits. They stress to me that it takes too much time, it makes them tired, they are too lazy etc...

Rarely do I get the person who says that working out will reverse the aging process, help them lose weight, give them self confidence, give them more energy, help them sleep better, have more sex, make more money and LIVE LONGER just to name a few.

When you are starting out on a new journey such as working out you MUST MUST MUST stress to yourself the benefits and stay away from the negatives.

Working out is the ultimate way you can give yourself value. You are putting YOURSELF first before your car, your home, your job and everything else you may think are important but are not.

Taking care of your body gives you the ultimate power anyone can have. You put ME first before anything else and that is what people need to start doing to live a quality life.
