Slow feet, don’t eat, Taraz! I trivialized the impact of exercise and only recently tried making a change myself. So to that regard, we’re all human. I got my motivation from an anime I’d been devouring rather than exercise. The protagonist has an insurmountable task ahead of him, and is almost psychologically crushed thinking, ‘I’ve done all my training, but it’s no use!’ The counsel he receives: “Train to death.” At a certain point, it’s all you can do if desire a change. I can’t say I have many workout montages a week, but the words did move me to action. If I wanna take pictures of good-looking people, should I at least be so myself? I’ve yet to grind today, so I’m off.
This is how I actually see work and have written a post here about "working myself to death", which I see as continually looking to improve and be useful.
Go grind.
