Little Results Matter.

Nothing is more motivating than seeing results.

Focus on just a few small things.

Work at it.

Stick to working at it.

See results.

These simple steps got me out of the rut I am in.

As mentioned in my previous post, I fell seriously off the fitness track, so I bit the bullet, took time completely off to work with a physio to get rehabilitated and then started my training program.

This time I wasn’t overly ambitious, I focused.

Get cardiovascularly fit.

Instead of trying to do 10,000 things at once, just do 1.

Do it well, then move on to the next.

I bit the bullet and took my own harsh medicine.

And these are the result:

One month ago, running 1m7s with full 1 min rest.

This week, running 1m03s with 1min plus jogging active rest.

Funny thing is that it still feels like I’m running too slow everytime I run, but hey, I gotta trust the results on paper and stick to it.

I’ve now increased the time I am able to spend in my max heart rate zone from 4 min to 5.5 min, and I’m doing it at higher speeds.

And that’s the amazing part, this process of focusing on small things and getting them done over a period of 6-8 weeks just gave me the confidence in myself.

It’s like learning to trust myself again, that I can produce results.

And if I can do this, I can build my dreams.

Now to keep going at it, small tasks, every single day.

Miss one day and you’ll miss everyday.
