A lesson I Re-learn about life: I had my first workout in four months earlier this morning. The urge to workout came during my late night ‘Tving’ and the fact that I can’t live with this protruding belly, I’m not a politician. I knew I wasn’t gonna sleep all night due to the unusual four hours nap I had yesterday afternoon when PHCN did what they know how to do best.
A lesson I Re-learn about life: I had my first workout in four months earlier this morning. The urge to workout came during my late night ‘Tving’ and the fact that I can’t live with this protruding belly, I’m not a politician. I knew I wasn’t gonna sleep all night due to the unusual four hours nap I had yesterday afternoon when PHCN did what they know how to do best.
After switching from channels, I decided
to lace my running shoes around 5:40am which I tucked away since my final
papers. I said the morning prayers and hit the road. I stated the workout
exactly at 6:32am from Makuns Hotel junction. My usual routine is to jog from
the earlier mentioned point to and fro Lameco junction in less than 15mins with
ease, I actually enjoyed it: the morning breeze was perfect.
About 5mins back to my starting point, my
whole body couldn’t take it any longer. That could be associated to my long
break from workout. My ankles start to ache, my legs felt like they are about
to fall off, I could hear something telling me to STOP! STOP!!, STOP!!! Another
voice told me to continue. Good vs evil, the two thought kept battling until I
switched my attention to the song on my
earpiece yet didn’t stop, I kept struggling and aches and pain running through my veins. Despite the pain, I kept running, something just kept me going. I never gave in to the thought of stopping.
earpiece yet didn’t stop, I kept struggling and aches and pain running through my veins. Despite the pain, I kept running, something just kept me going. I never gave in to the thought of stopping.
Shortly after climbing that mountain, I started
enjoying it once again till I got back to my starting point. This is a similar
event to what happens in real life where we are faced with choices and taking
actions. When we face challenges, we feel like giving up and not fighting back.
But you don’t have to give up, you keep pushing and trying: You’ll surely
prevail. After your victory start enjoying the fruits of your labour.
No pain, no gain they say, when faced
with choices, never give negative thoughts a chance. Believe in yourself and
believe in God. Follow your heart when it matters most. I’ll like to admonish
you never to give up.
