30/10/2023 Just Begin
Whatever it is that you want, need, hope, or think of doing, just begin. Step out of your mind, get out of your own way, and take that first step.
Let everything else snowball from there.
29/10/2023 Am I ready?
I often ask myself, "Am I ready?"
There is no workout , metric or person who can tell me. The answer is simple. I'll know I'm ready when I will stop asking the question 27/10/2023 Sitting is the new smoking
The body is so sore after sitting at the desk for a couple of days in a row. Good to be back standing and moving.
A good reminder of the way my body works Stand up, move! Don't sit on your butt! Sitting is the new smoking
23/10/2023 People can be mirrors for our soul
There are people who inspire me for their accomplishments, others for their deep thinking and intellectual flexibility, and some for their creativity, ability to communicate, resilience, ease of life, family values, and much more. In fact, there's something I admire in every person in my circle of friends.
I believe it's important to share with them why I admire someone. It feels good to be seen on both sides. By openly expressing my admiration for qualities I highly value in others, it leads to a higher level of introspection that I wouldn't achieve otherwise. The right people can serve as mirrors for our own souls. 20/10/2023 Focus on form
This morning I was chatting with a friend who ran the Blackall 50km in gruelling hot conditions on the weekend.
Before the race I suggested him to go back to "running form" any time his mind started to wonder, or anything external (heat, climbs, ..) bothered him, or simply if he started to feel tired, slow, unmotivated. As it always happens. He thanked me this morning. When you concentrate on your running form, you bring your attention back to your body. Pay attention to your posture, the rhythm of your breath, and the cadence of your steps. Feel the earth beneath your feet and the subtle shifts in your muscles as they work in harmony to propel you forward. By staying present in your body through running form, you become one with your run. The mind-chatter fades, the world blurs around the edges, and you enter the magical realm of flow. It's a place where each step feels effortless, and you're in complete harmony with your surroundings. |
