Out hiking last year in Colorado, Sarah and I spent a lot of time hiking. We would continue to climb, come around a corner, only to see another hill to climb. On and on it went. When we would get to larger open areas, the view was incredible, and well worth all of the effort. The fun, though, was in the “climb”. The adventure involved with it, the time we got to spend together, the solitude and peace. Life is all about the “climb”. We all have daily “climbs”, we keep working on things, and eventually have an end goal in mind…but it is the experience, the “climb” we go through to get there that is the adventure. Exercise is a lot like life…we have our struggles, we have our good days and bad days, but the end goal is what we are trying to achieve…a healthier, more enjoyable life. Enjoy life, enjoy exericise.
The views and accomplishments that we achieve, and see, are all well worth the effort we put into it. There is nothing in life worth having that comes easy. The more we work at it, the more we appreciate it as well. Enjoy the adventure along the way. Remember one key point: “Success: A Journey, not a Destination!”
