So, don't think I've mentioned this but I have been on a bit of a fitness kick lately (hence my disappearing act on this blog: am a total ADD type sometimes, like I have enough focus in me for one thing only, and that's what's gonna get done. Am rolling eyes at MYSELF!). I have always liked being active, and doing things, but this is like, I log kilometers, the more it hurts in the gym the more I like it kinda stuff. To be honest it seems to me it has a lot to do with my recent 30th birthday. Unlike some of my friends, I have no issues with it, but I did suddenly get an urge to be fit like an active 15 year old. It has the element of fear of aging in the background.
Anyways, am totally into it and this is how I most enjoy spending my days now. I do want it to last but I also would like to learn how to incorporate 2 (or God forbid 3) things in my life successfully. I mean there must be a healthier way to focus than obsessing, right!?!?

P.S. Obviously, I am not imagining this to be my thighs, but give me 3 or 4 years and who know. Crazier things have happened!
noooo but this is not about obsessing... the thing is that once you start getting fit and you get into the habit of it it just feels too good...and everyday you want more!!! happens the same to me. but then if I stop (like now, it's a month I'm not doing any exercise because I have too much work) it's really hard to be back on track... hopefully next week I will have more time for myself...hopefully! :)
ReplyDeletewow, I wonder how old I have to get before I finally manage to go to the gym on a more or less regular basis ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm also 'suffering' with not being able to focus on more than 1 thing at the time right now so I completely understand what you mean about dropping other things to concentrate on this. The good news for you is that exercise will not just get you fit, it will actually hugely help you with your ability to focus and concentrate on more than 1 thing, isn't that brilliant? :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic illustration! So vital and 80s.
ReplyDeleteHaha the moment I read your post title the song started playing in my head :D
ReplyDeleteWow I think that it's a good good!! There's no such thing as too much exercise... right?
