For many, life is a series of habits that were adopted unconsciously and are now running their course—controlling your actions and your life.
Our habits and addictions are the most obvious obstacle to fitness and health. I’ve had my share of bad habits and I’ve made my share of poor choices. And I’ve had several awakening moments to compel me to reform my ways. That’s why I write a lot about habit change and addiction. It’s the whole write what you know about thing. When we change our habits, we change our entire lives—practically instantaneously. You might have a habit of a poor diet. That leads to results of getting sick, suffering heartburn, gaining weight, having high blood pressure, getting diabetes, etc. Yet if you gained control over your diet, all those conditions would fall away. Although habit-change is the low hanging fruit, it’s hard. Real hard. We like to kid ourselves and think we can take pill or otherwise offload the hard work to some magic potion. But we can’t. At Working Man Fitness, I provide you with tips and tricks to change your habits, eliminate your addictions, and approach exercise and health in a sane, sustainable manner. There is only one way to gain peace of mind, and that is to gain control of yourself, and eliminate your irrational tendencies, behaviors, and beliefs. It’s a continual process, a gradual unfoldment. Proceeding on this path makes you a better person. When you become a better person, you uplift the people around you. Then they uplift the people around them. Doesn’t this sound good? Isn’t it worth it to give up something up in order to attain something greater? Of course it is. And everyone can do it. I invite you to sign up for my newsletter, read more about my story and my “awakening moments,” check out my training services (if you’re in the Milwaukee, WI area), and contact me. |
