Late night here and I nearly forgot to blog. This is a rare occurrence because blogging has become so engrained in what I do each day that it is a part of who I am. Nevertheless I’m here in bed on my phone blogging. The subject tonight is routine. I come to this after one week and one day of the six week work out plan. I’m scheduled for daily gym time every week day, with the hopes of building it into a habit. I need more time to officially form a habit but I can say it already feels normal and necessary to go to the gym.
The things I need most in life are the things I need to make into routine or they won’t get the attention they deserve. I cannot explain why that is how it is for most things, but for the gym at least I know it is about getting it done and over with. I haven’t reached the part where I enjoy what I am doing. I have reached the part where I know that it matters and as a result will continue the process . I’m looking forward to the time where I can physically see results. That’s the hardest difference to make up between writing and working out. At the end of the day I see words when I write. When I work out all I feel is the pain and no discernible weight loss. Yes, maybe it takes more time or maybe I’m not doing it right. Still the key is to not need the immediate recompense.
I haven’t gotten that right yet.
