Quotation of the Week

"You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water" - Rabindranath Tagore

Too many of you have great ideas... and great intentions.
But that's all they are. Ideas. Intentions. Not Results.

In the fitness world, you might say, "I was thinking about getting started on a better nutrition plan real soon". Or, "I'd like to start getting up early and going for a morning run". Or, "I've been planning for a while on going to get a massage in order to release the tension in my upper back..."
And, more often than not, the statement fizzles out with no action behind it.

Ideas and intentions without action are worthless.

Yes, it's good to dream and it's good to create targets for which you'd like to reach.
But how helpful is it if you never finish what you intend to accomplish?
And what if you never even start?!!

The things we want most in life take time and effort and consistent action. They are huge endeavors that require us to make changes in our behaviors. Like crossing a large body of water to get to your intended destination, it takes time and effort and consistent action to arrive. So, you can't just look at the water and continually wish you already arrived. Similarly, you can't just think about your goals/intentions/ideas and just hope for them to happen.

Don't be afraid, my friends.
Cross the sea! Get in and get wet! Take some frickin' action already!
Do something every day that will bring you closer to your destination...
