Back at gym after a month’s hiatus.
Five days later, the body revolts in pain.
10 months to get strong.
3 weeks to lose it all.
It takes four days of practice to be at work by 7 am and push out meaningful content. I often underestimate how much time it takes to get used to something or someone.
It takes ~5 times more energy to start something. The starter motor’s sole function is to start the car before internal combustion takes over. It must disengage quickly, otherwise it’ll burn out. Once started, less energy needed to keep the wheels turning.
Is my starter motor doing what it’s designed to do? To start me up before the procrastination monster takes over and leaves me immobile?
My starter motor is powered by the stillness of early morning before the world invades my personal space. When my mind is clear and full of possibilities, it takes less to do what I’ve set out to do.
The starter motor must engage and disengage with precision. Mindful of the new things started and existing ventures to be maintained. I only have one tank of gas to get me through the day.
Am I prioritizing my start up and maintenance efforts to get to my next destination on time, before I run out of gas? Am I stopping too often? Am I stopping too often, only to start back up again?
