Look at it like brushing your teeth. You don't think about it, you just do it because it's simply what you do.

Yeah I liked the quote but the image really sold me on posting it… it’s real goofy.

If you're on fire, don't run toward your dreams.
Stop, drop, & roll.

If I carried my head this way, how am I supposed to carry around my balls around?

Never really got these types of talks about motivation and discipline, I like working out, i like working on my squat and deadlift and making progress. It's supposed to be enjoyable. I see someone use the word 'non-negotiable', imo the only thing thats non-negotiable is physical activity, what kind is entirely up to you, if you don't like going to the gym i'd suggest just doing something else

It depends on the reason for going to the gym. Motivation has many reasons. And some can be very fueling

It’s about improving your state of mind, not “fixing” or perfecting it.

"Shake the Frost" - Tyler Childers has an amazing perspective on this topic:
Well, I used to ride a Mustang
And I'd run that thing on high hopes
'Til they raised the price of dreams so high I couldn't pay
So I let that car just sit there
When I should've took you driving
With the windows down while the music played
Much more sad than motivational, but a beautifully crafted response to the sentiment in this image.

Thanks, I appreciate you explaining the process and also acknowledging the fact that it isn’t easy at all

Make sure you inject some variety into your workout. Monotony can be a motivation killer

It’s easy look back and ask yourself why you started at first if it was a really and strong reason you’d get your motivation back I bet you

I was against group classes for years but recently hit a similar slump. I decided to give one a try and now I'm hooked!

Yo OP, I tried to first disable all the notification on all social media because I didn't want to delete them as they were handy for communication sometime. After disabling everything I realized that my phone was boring as fuck now and I only checked on it when needed.
I believe this is less cold turkey and works pretty well for focusing on tasks.

Because I only have one life and I don't want to die from being engulfed in flames.

A lot of my wildest dreams involve having a roof over my head and eating food everyday.

Find a gym with some eye candy, new work out clothes that love and a getting a new personalized water bottle always helped motivate me and trying times.

What's the point of driving to the gym, wasting gas, only to walk on a treadmill for 10 minutes when you can just walk outside for 10 minutes? Real walking is better for you than a treadmill as well.
