Workout With Others

Or not…

I tend to sabotage my own growth when I tend to want to start a program with someone. It’s good to have someone you can workout with. You feel like they might hold you accountable to your routines, but you’re wrong.

I’m wrong.

I am at my own fault for not having any growth. If one of my friends do not show up at the gym, then I’m like that’s a rest day. The next day it repeats and so forth. You eventually lose your momentum to even work out. I tend to just stuff my face with junk food and then quickly regret it afterwards.

I’m not a gym junkie nor am I close to a nice physique but I find it interesting that I set my own self up for failure. Is it common for everyone to do that? If I dig deep enough then maybe the truth is I’m scared. I’m scared of my failure. So instead of failing and growing; I just tend to sit in my own hut never to explore the outside world. I never take that first climb up that mountain. I can never get to see the city view.

Yet today I managed. I managed to get up. I managed to start again. The one thing I love about myself is that I don’t completely give up. I always come back and I’ll keep coming back. Hopefully stronger than ever. If I can get back up then you can definitely do so as well.
