Do Not Expect Applause
Do Not Expect Applause
Your Health Journey Is For You and You Only
Seeing a before and after can motivate us and leave us in awe.
We naturally understand how hard it is to make a physical change, mainly because we don't do it easily for ourselves.
And often when people post these changes, they are met with support for their efforts.
But this can be a trap.
What if you couldn't show anyone on social media?
What if the only people who noticed were people who hadn't seen you for a long time?
Would you still be motivated?
When it comes to your health and fitness, do not expect applause.
And do not try to seek it out.
You can accept it if it's given - there's no need to be so humble you can't say thank you when someone appreciates your hard work.
But don't be waiting for it.
The results you want are for you and you only.
Yes, others benefit from your health.
Others benefit from you having better energy and focus, and are inspired themselves to be healthy.
But if you do it for others, what happens if they disapprove?
What happens if no applause comes and you're left feeling flat.
Instead, health and fitness is a selfish act, that benefits others.
Instead, look to give yourself a round of applause for a job well done.
The applause can be addicting.
And we can never have enough.
No, block everyone out and focus on you, for you.
And if you do get some applause, take a bow, and get right back to doing the work.
Until next time,
Marco
