I have decided it is time to stop being lazy. This year I want to get back into shape and start training again.
I have determined that it is one thing to take an occasional day or two, do nothing and eat whatever I want. It is another thing all together to let that turn into a lifestyle, because nothing good comes of it. I am sick and tired of the results I am getting from a lack of self-discipline. The results of good self-discipline, hard work and constant training are so much more rewarding. I can't believe that I let myself go for so long without it.
I learned to have great self-discipline through martial arts at a young age. Things changed and the school I trained at closed. I guess I just had the opportunity to try something new (being lazy), so I tried it. It was so easy! But, it was the wrong path. Anything worth having is worth working hard and fighting for. So, no big surprise that it turns out I hate being lazy! It just doesn't suite me. I am not myself without self-discipline and martial arts. Training is such a huge part of who I am that even during all that time when I was not training I can honestly say a day did not go by that I did not think of training, technique, my old training partners, anything, something to do with martial arts.
Training makes me a better and happier person. It is a way of life for me, not a sport. I am a Martial Artist. And its about time I got off my ass and started behaving like one.
