Straight-up advice from a stand-up guy every month.
I’m overweight, but I can never summon the will-power to hit the gym. Any advice to change my thinking?
When I ask my audiences who exercises, a few hands usually always go up. When I ask those same people if exercise is the best or close to the best part of the day, their hands stay up. See, those who don’t exercise probably think these people are a bunch of masochists. They’ve tried exercising but never got the same joy. The solution is simple: you need to give it time. Exercise is painful for anyone who isn’t used to physical activity. The reality is that once you’ve stuck it out regularly for a month, that pain will slowly transform into pleasure.
No matter how many times I’ve tried, I just can’t get out of bed without hitting snooze until my phone gives up on me. How can I transform into an earlier bird?
