Motivational Mondays

"Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it."

Charles R. Swindoll

I still think it is better to respond than to react because you cannot control a reaction but you can control the way you respond to the situation in which you exist. Nevertheless, Mr.Charles begs to differ. Lol.

Hi guys,

Welcome back to yet another #Motivational Mondays.

Are you guys pumped to train/workout? If not then this post is aimed at firing you up to workout and get healthy.

Alright, So before we begin let's just see together what are Motivational Mondays all about? I have seen that people either want to begin working out and then they have some other commitments to attend to and then they never begin working out or they begin working out and then they don't continue the momentum forward i.e. don't even last a week. Therefore, these posts are going to be providing you some motivation/inspiration to work out so that you banish the excuses and make some room even if it's for 5-10 mins. for working out daily.

Now 3,2,1 run.

Today's post is going to be about a woman named Sarah. So Sarah belongs to a well to do family in an underdeveloped country. But she notices that many people in her vicinity struggle to fetch themselves two meals a day. So while growing up she decides that one day she will become an entrepreneur and help everyone in her country as much as possible to at least enjoy the basic standard of living which was provided to her by her parents.

In the meanwhile, she decides to save up on her lunch money whenever possible and buy lunch for the homeless in her neighborhood. Sarah enjoys her studies and excels in class because she is actually learning instead of memorizing. Therefore, she is able to actually understands the concepts of what is being taught to her and is easily able to pass with flying colors. She shines in both sports and studies. Finally, the day comes when she graduates school and enters college having won many awards both for herself and for her school. Because of her splendid grades she gets in the best possible college lets call it XYZ college for the purpose of this post.

The first day of college and she is nervous but somehow gets through the first day. After a month she has made a lot of friends and settled in very well. Fast-forwarding her college years because the real deal is what happens after these years. So she graduates college and gets a high paying job. Until now she has spent approximately 2,000$ in feeding the homeless. That awesome but still she intends to help a lot more than what has happened till now. So she decides to continue her normal routine of working out, going to her job, me-time to play video games along with the recent edition of trying to do some freelance work here and there to earn more money than what she receives at her job. She intends to use this to be able to build her business of selling electronic goods so that she can help the poor residing in her country.

But then tragedy strikes as she is forced to marry someone chosen by her family and settle down asap. Remember, No isn't an answer where she lives. FYI she lives in Afghanistan. Now she finds herself juggling her marriage, job, freelancing and working out. She finds it too tiring to continue with freelancing after 2 months. So she decides to quit freelancing for some time. However, her husband, fortunately, turns out to be supportive of her endeavors and decides to help her with the household stuff so that she can only pay attention to her job, freelancing and working out. She thanks him and then works relentlessly to be able to earn enough money for her business. Till now she is committed to helping people over there as much as possible and that is quite admirable in my opinion.

It takes her an entire year to be able to gather the funds for her business and then another year to set up the business and get the ball rolling. At last, she earns her first million bucks after 2 years and with the help of her husband and friends sets up places where people can get free education so that they can develop certain skills and then leverage them to be able to earn a consistent income so that they can support themselves and their families pretty easily and possibly thrive. In 2 decades she has managed to help at least a million people and is very happy that she was able to help them as she had resolved she would.

This is just a hypothetical situation I just made up but still, you can see the passion and commitment to be able to achieve what you want to. In this scenario, Sarah fulfilling her resolve to help the poor people in her country through education centers.

Now my question to you is that if Sarah can go after what she wanted without making any excuses, whining and complaining unnecessarily about her circumstances. What is stopping you from working out for a minimum of 20 minutes a day for the rest of the week and then enjoying a #Peaceful Sunday? Lol.

Also, let me know in the comments section if this does inspire you guys to work out because if it does and you get fit them mission successful.
