Next up is not doing something because you can’t do it as well as you once could.
And I get this.
It can be depressing when you try and do something and can’t do it anywhere near as well as you once did.
I can’t lift the same weights that I did 10 or 20 years ago.
I’m not as flexible as I once was.
Years of wear and tear means my body does not move as well as it used to.
But it’s worth remembering that not exercising now will just make that even worse.
Sometimes it’s not about improving – it’s about standing still or even slowing the slide.
But that’s miles better than faster regression.
All that happens when we avoid things that remind us of what we used to be able to do…….
Is that we hide that.
It doesn’t stop it being the case.
If anything hiding it makes it even worse.
Countless times over the years I’ve helped people do more than they actually thought they could.
Maybe not all the way back to their physical prime but considerably closer than they recently had been.
But whatever happens it’s always worth remembering that doing nothing and regressing the fastest is the worst possible choice (if that’s where you are right now, we can help. You know where to find us –> www.myrise.co.uk/apply)
Much love,
