Journey

Image
It's a long journey. No one's walking the same path.  You walk on your own path and you meet a lot of people along the way.  People come and go. You can struggle all you want to keep them yet if they're not walking in the same direction they will depart. Don't worry to much about what others might think of you cause most likely they will be gone before you can blink your eyelash.  Be free to choose your own path, your own unique experiences cause those that judge and criticize will leave .  In the end, only those that walking in the same direction with you, those that truly matters, will remain on your side. They will walk with you, they will appreciate the path that you take and those are the people that you should treasure. In this journey of life, it's better not to walk alone...

Burpee

Burpee is probably the greatest exercise ever invented and all you need is your body.  With this exercise, there will be no more excuses. Even if you're lazy, no time, no space, with Burpee , none of that matters.  That's not the only reason it's my favorite exercise. Another reason is it is a total body workout. I don't sweat that easily but with Burpee, I break into nice sweat after ten repetitions.  Forget about treadmill and any other expensive equipment.  Gym membership is absolutely unnecessary.  Get up and away from your computer or TV and go down and give me 50 Burpees.  You will shower in your own sweat, I promise you that.

First step to being active

"A journey of a thousand miles begin with a simple step" People are resistance to change. That's just a simple fact. Even Newton's laws of physics approve that. An object remains at rest will state at rest unless there's an external force apply to it. Same thing with us human beings. We won't be able to change unless some kind of "force" apply to us. If you've been leading an inactive lifestyle, getting back into a more active lifestyle will be difficult. First is the willingness to change. Second is taking actionable steps. My recommendation is to start small. One simple thing you can do to be more active is by simply taking a 30 minutes walk every morning after you wake up. Just that and do that for 30 days until it becomes a habit. That's it. First thing in the morning, after your fresh glass of water, don't jump in front of a computer, start walking. This will start off your day on the right track.

Productive day

It's funny how I feel that laundry day is the most productive day. I guess it because the entire process involves more physical movements than anything else. Looking at the bigger picture, as human beings advances in technology, we've become less and less physically active. In general, a working person nowadays spends more time being stationary than active. The more we work our brain, the less we use our body. However, our body is designed by nature to move around. An inactive body will become atrophy and useless in the end. Therefore, it is a good idea to balance our mental activity with our physical activity. By harmonizing our mental activity with our physical activity, we'll be able to achieve higher productivity. As always, a well balance lifestyle is optimal for prolong health and wellness.
