Just Do It

By | January 17, 2024

Hello,

What’s new? I am writing to you from Detroit, Michigan. It’s cold here.
I have not stepped outside of the house in the past two days.
The sun is shining at the moment.
I am at a friend’s house.
She has two cats and a little girl.
And she thinks I think too much.
She thinks that I need to just do things without overthinking.
I tentatively agree.
I love thinking.
I also need to “Just Do It” 80% of the time.

I signed up for a half marathon in June.
Why? Because I want to.
Why? Because it will be a great motivation to get moving again.
Why? Because it will be good for my health.
Why? Because I like feeling healthy and strong.
Why? Because that helps me to feel confident and optimistic.
Why? Because I like feeling confident and optimistic about myself.
Why? Because that helps me to feel motivated to continue on living and trying new things.
Why? Because trying new things and challenging myself to grow is fun to me.
Why? Because I get bored easily and I don’t like TV or video games as ways to entertain myself.
I entertain myself by learning new things and making new things.

In short, the reason I signed up for a half marathon is I get bored easily and I need things to do that’s fun to me.

What’s something fun for you that you want to do in six months? Think about it and most importantly, just do it.

Wink.

Now, your turn, any thoughts? I care to know.
