When it came to exercise and proper nutrition, I had a tendency to avoid anything that I deemed painful like the plague. I realized that it all boiled down to how I viewed pain and pleasure, both short term and long term. One might say that I hit rock bottom when it came to my health. I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. What caused this change in behavior? I was fed up of being fed up. I started exercising daily and slowly improved my diet. It was only after I did a lot of painful soul-searching that I finally decided to change my ways and get fit. I lived this way for quite a few years even though, deep inside, I knew that I wanted to be fitter and healthier.

Even though I had been very active in sports when younger, I had let myself go over the years and I hated it. There was a time when I was overweight, unfit, and I felt horrible. Let me shed some light on my own personal story. It is also important to note that pain and pleasure can be broken down into short term pain, long term pain, as well as short term pleasure and long term pleasure.

But many others do not take action and either stay overweight or even gain weight. Many have succeeded and are an inspiration to others. But why the disparity?įor example, I do not know of any overweight person who would not like to lose weight and be fit. Some people seem to be more motivated while others are not. What is the difference between the two groups of people? Motivation. Some successfully achieve their goals while many others do not. Learning to forgive themselves and others.Some common changes that people would like to make in their lives are:
Each person has their own set of goals, desires and dreams. I am no exception and have had my own fair share of struggles to be a better person and to achieve various goals. Most people want to better their lives in some form or another. When You Are Sick and Tired of Feeling Sick and Tired
