The Duality of an Exercise State of Mind
Negative thoughts about exercising:
- Why put more effort into my life?
- I’m fine doing less work
- Working out requires effort; I’m already tired from my job
- I won’t lose weight so what does it matter?
- I get tired within five minutes of exercising, so I prefer to not even bother
- I don’t see any results
- It’s too much work
Positive thoughts that you need to implement regarding exercising:
- Hard work pays off
- My mental health will improve
- My body-mind connection will improve
- I will feel more confident
- I will become more disciplined
- I will feel better about myself
- People will compliment me on my improved physique
- I will have more confidence in my ability to work hard
You see, as with anything that requires hard work in life, negative thoughts often get in the way of you succeeding. Negative thoughts have to be intentionally replaced with positive ones until your attitude shifts and the process of exercising becomes easier. It’s definitely possible; the question is, are you willing to start?

I find exercise to be a real mood changer, especially after a poor night’s sleep. It’s always worth making the effort.

Yes, I got a Peloton in May and it has been a great asset. So much easier to get motivated to exercise when it’s sitting in your room!
