How Running and Reading Can Save Your Life
Hey, you! Yeah, YOU!
Do you really think that your current trajectory is going to get you where you want to go in life? Feeling sorry for yourself. Always getting screwed over. Never your fault. Victim.
Well, how’s that working out for you? Are you making progress on your goals? Living the life of your dreams? Attracting the kind of people that you want to spend your time with or want your life to look like in a couple of decades?
That’s what I thought.
Good news: there’s a solution…
But it hurts. It will push you. It will demand more of you than do of yourself right now. It won’t listen to excuses or allow you to feel sorry for yourself. It won’t ask you about your feelings. It won’t settle.
If you’re willing, your life will look different in 6 months.
Are you up for it?
Why You Should Kill Off The Old You
“Anyone who isn’t embarrassed of who they were last year probably isn’t learning enough.” — Alain de Botton

It’s over, in the rearview. There’s no place for the person you once were if you want to take your life beyond what you feel capable of.
