Imagine you’re on a long car journey.
I dunno – you’re going to Devon or somesuch.
Unless you’re reading this in Devon, in which case you can use your imagination.
Some of the roads will be motorways, some little country lanes, some through built up areas.
Imagine your mate says you should stick the 30mph on the motorway.
As 70 isn’t “maintainable” for the whole journey.
You’d ignore them, wouldn’t you?
Our journeys don’t need to be kept to the slowest speed we can definitely manage.
As long as we don’t just go home the second we come off the motorway.
You can speed up and slow down on your journey to a (delete as appropriate) slimmer / stronger / fitter / healthier / more energetic / less pained body.
Make hay while the sun shines.
Do more when you can, less when you can’t.
Not everything you do along the way needs to be maintainable.
As long as, when you can’t go full speed, you don’t do that equivalent of just going home (check myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting for the next step with us if that ‘going home’ is what’s been happening so far).
Feel free to do unmaintainable things from time to time then slow to something more maintainable – just don’t use that slowing as a justification to stop completely.
Much love,
