Agree. I fall into this trap too much. Now that I've hit 40s the body doesn't ignite with energy as it use to.
Grant Cardone said a quote which was applied for business but fits exercise and life as well. The reason people do not enjoy work is they quit before they receive the benefits. Without the right results people will be discouraged on the work involved so you have to get to the OTHER SIDE where the rewards out weight the work.
100% agree! Love that Cardone quote. Most people do quit after they realize that they haven't really gotten anything yet. Only those who stay the course end up earning something for their hard work!
