While you see so many people committed to shrinking themselves down as much as possible, let’s focus on being strong. Being powerful. Being ourselves!!
I used to think hitting goals meant pushing harder. Eating less. Ignoring tiredness and calling it “determination.” I thought discipline was doing more, even when my body was clearly asking for less.
But the more I learn, the more obvious it becomes:
Nothing good comes from treating yourself like an enemy you’re trying to control.
The strongest runs come from being fed.
The fastest progress comes from being rested.
Real health comes from fueling, lifting, stretching, sleeping, and giving your body more than the bare minimum!!
I’m realizing that accomplishing anything meaningful means taking care of myself in every sense of the word. Not punishing myself into results, but supporting myself into them.
No matter what your goal is (a marathon, strength, confidence, health) you don’t get there by tearing yourself down.
You get there by treating yourself like someone you love.
That’s the whole point. That’s the work.🤍
