What’s the Point?

Every so often in my life I find it’s good to take a few minutes out of the day to ask myself why I’m doing something. What do I hope to accomplish? What’s the goal? Why do I want these things? I think all too frequently people do things without really knowing why, which in turn leaves them spinning their wheels and not going anywhere. So what’s the point of this riff-raff then?

I want people to figure out what their goals are and figure out why those goals matter to them. It’s easy to say you want to lose weight to look better, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that perspective. Why do you want to look better? What does looking better do for you?

I think regardless of your goals one way or another it always comes back to having a better quality of life. Weight loss, movement quality, strength gains, being healthier, etc. If it’s not making life better, why are you doing it? If it is making life better, are you giving your goals the attention and respect they deserve?

Figure out what you want, why you want it, then go get it.
