It’s 4:50 a.m.—My alarm clock rings and I am quickly out the door. For me, it is a great way to start the day.
My teammates in this group include a large number of attorneys. This is the perfect workout for self-driven, determined, and focused type-A personalities—i.e., lawyers.
Get comfortable being uncomfortable. Some of you already are a member of a fitness group or gym. For you, “get comfortable being uncomfortable” means you should get out of your comfort zone. Change up your regular fitness routine. Challenge yourself to improve by doing a little more or a little better each day. That one extra rep, a slightly faster time, or a little longer distance will give you that boost you need to go to the next level. Mentally accept we are not always on the top of the mountain and there will be times when we are in the valley. During that time of discomfort, know with certainty we will get back to the top.
The only easy day was yesterday. If you are not as physically active as you want to be (or need to be), today is the day to change that. Yesterday is the past and today offers new opportunities. Today is the day to increase your activity level. Consider getting outdoors for exercise.
I will persevere and thrive on adversity. Each of us is sure to face adversity. We all have the ability to turn the negatives into positives, but it doesn’t always happen easily.
This new year brings about new opportunities to put your physical and mental health first. Be encouraged and encourage others. Evolve, grow, and be greatness in action. I believe each one of us will persevere and thrive in 2020.
