4:32am.
Yes…4:32 in the morning
Ready to do my workout…
I ended up recording a video in the car because I think this is an important message.
When my alarm went off, I nearly didn’t get up.
I was rolling around.
Thinking about how tired I felt.
Thinking about how comfortable the bed was.
Thinking:
“I could just stay here.”
And I quite easily could have gone back to sleep.
But then I started thinking about how I would feel afterwards.
Because I knew what would probably happen if I didn’t do it then.
I wouldn’t get the workout done later.
Or I’d squeeze something in while resenting not getting up when I had the chance.
Then I’d spend the day thinking:
“I wish I’d just done it.”
So instead of focusing on how I felt before the workout…
I pictured how I would feel afterwards.
More energised.
Clearer head.
That sense of achievement.
Doing what I said I would do.
“I did that.”
And after I actually got up?
I felt okay.
Better than I thought I would.
Not exactly excited for a workout at 4:32am…
^^ I don’t want to get carried away
But I was ready enough to get something done.
And that’s the point.
This isn’t me saying you need to wake up at 4:32am.
It’s about looking beyond how you feel right now.
Before a workout, walk or session you might feel:
Tired.
Busy.
Unmotivated.
Like you can’t be bothered.
But how might you feel afterwards?
More energised?
Proud you did it?
With a bit more headspace?
Sometimes that is the picture you need to focus on.
And it doesn’t need to be hours.
Mine was a short:
“Get it done.”
Something rather than nothing.

You don’t need to feel motivated before you begin today.

PS. In case you think I’m Superman…I did have a nap that afternoon
