Brain Vomit #12 Push it real good

I started this blog because one day i would like to write a book. I am a terrible writer as you may have noticed already, but with practice i will get better. Similar to getting fitter or getting better at anything. Practice, practice, practice. This is my practice writing. I post it in case anyone is interested in what i have to say or to prove that i did in fact practice. Think of it like posting your ride on strava, like your boring training routine. No one cares. But that’s not the point.

Today I am feeling uninspired, honestly most days I feel uninspired but i push myself to do it anyway. I wish I pushed myself to ride more. But it is so much easier not to. I don’t have to put a kit on, don’t have to think how far or long i have to go. Becoming a great cyclist requires a lot of self discipline and when you have too much on your plate, other responsibilities, you can justify not doing it. Work is different, my clients are paying me to do my thing whether i feel like it or not. I made a promise and I will keep it. Riding and working are similar in that aspect that you don’t want to let people down. Skip enough rides, do a few bad jobs and these people will stop counting on you. You don’t want to be that guy. Now Writing, writing is a promise i made to myself. So i’ll push myself to write even when i don’t feel like it.
