Kick yourself in the ass. Go ahead. You know you need to. You know there is something that you should be doing, and yet you’re not doing it. There may be a whole list of things.
I’m like you — I’ve got a list idling over there on the “Ignore” setting. And a whole list of lame excuses to go with it: too busy, too many commitments, too much blah blah blah.
The real truth (don’t you love that phrase? Real truth? Like there could be fake truth?) is that the list sits undone because we don’t want to do those things. It’s simple. We don’t want to do them, so we don’t do them. And then we sit there, guilty, eating chocolate and watching “House” instead of doing hill sprints or filing all that paperwork. (Oh wait, sorry, that was just me.)
Kick yourself in the ass. The day — and the week — will only get better after you do.
