Life Lessons Episode 30: Put In The Work...

I was recently having one of those ‘table-shaking’ conversations with a friend where we both came to the conclusion that one of the few things that cannot be contracted out and has no shortcuts is ‘Physical Fitness’. With weight loss, there are countless shortcuts or quick fix options ranging from paying to go under the knife or liposuction, etc But with physical fitness, mba nunu, meaning ‘not at all’ YOU MUST PUT IN THE WORK, there’s absolutely no other way to be physically fit. You must engage in physical fitness activities and break a sweat.

As human beings, we have successfully crafted and mastered the act of finding shortcuts to practically everything, except this one though. With physical fitness, you literally can’t. You can pay someone to coach you but they cannot do it for you, you have to Put In The Work yourself.

This reminds me of my Instagram post a few weeks back and a similar scenario I have observed time and again. That scenario where we pay for coaching or strategy sessions and expect things to miraculously change without putting in the work.
