I was chatting to a new member the other day.
In person and everything.
Now we’re back in the club 🙂
They said something that jumped out at me.
I’ve heard it before many times but, for whatever reason, it didn’t ring this particular bell before.
They were explaining why they’d struggled with ye olde health – fitness – weight management business before.
It was “the countless hours that go into being in shape”.
Which I get.
When you add up the total amount of time someone who’s in the shape they’d like have spent exercising, it is rather a lot.
Over the last 20 years I must’ve put in a number of thousand hours.
Same with the eating.
Over three meals every day and providing for a family of six (plus dog), I daren’t work out how many hours has gone into that.
So, I get it.
But………..
What doesn’t take “countless hours”.
What have we ever done in life that didn’t take countless hours?
How many hours have we put into funding the life we want to live (AKA working)?
How many hours invested in our relationships with other halves, kids, family members and friends?
Everything worth doing takes countless hours.
And realising that is empowering.
As is realising that those hours don’t need to be put in in one go.
Bit by bit is fine.
It’s not like work where it’s (usually) in eight hours blocks.
Five minutes here, an hour there.
It all adds up.
And, much like a lot of the countless hours stuff we do, we can make it as enjoyable as possible.
It might never be our favourite thing in the whole world (it’s not for me)……….
But we can probably make it more enjoyable.
Finding a healthier way to eat that takes no more countless hours than the unhealthy way we may have been doing.
By doing it with like minded people in an intimidation free atmosphere perhaps (myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting)?
There are 168 hours in a week.
Although it does add to over the years, it won’t take all that many of them.
Much love,
Jon ‘Countdown’ Hall
