LET'S GO ON A MAN-DATE!
Just you and me brother…
Now, we’ve had a couple of drinks, and you ask me a question…
“𝘑𝘢𝘴𝘦, 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥? 𝘈𝘳𝘦𝘯’𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥?”
Good question…
My response would be…
“𝘋𝘶𝘥𝘦, 𝘐’𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥, 𝘐’𝘮 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘱𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘥…”
I know what I want
I turn 40 next year
I might be half way to my death,
𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐈’𝐦 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬.
I realised about 3 years ago, that no one was coming to save me…
I was bored, uninspired, and life felt like Groundhog Day
Then when COVID hit and I had a kid coming, I lost my entire income and all sense of security
It was uncomfortable and scary AF
But I realise in hindsight, it was a test
A test whether I was ready to step up or not
Or whether once again, I’d play it safe.
As I sit and share a drink with you brother,
𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭, 𝐈 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐢𝐭
You’ve been sitting on the fence, “𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵”
But you know what, getting in shape will be the catalyst for massive confidence growth
The growth in confidence will improve your self-belief
And the self-belief will give you the “motivation” that you see in me
𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝟐 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐜𝐤
And I’ll know exactly how you feel, because it was me once.
Now’s your time mate!
