It can be a challenge to do the right thing.

And to be honest, most of the time it comes down to chemicals.

There are all sorts of hormones that humans produce depending on context.

And each of these encourage a certain behaviour, which supposedly acts in favour of survival.

However, humans were blessed with a logical brain. A brain which knows, not feels.

So, when faced with doughnut vs fruit

or

Ice shower vs warmth

There is a contradiction of the two.

I have fallen victim to making poor food choices.

To giving up on a workout due to fatigue.

To making excuses as why not to endure the ice cold stream of the water.

It’s when you feel the worst that you must push yourself.

Eating right is easy and wonderful when in the mood.

When you feel like some comfort food. That’s when progress is made.

Forcing the “no”. An internal debate. You don’t feel the potential health rewards.

But my goodness do you feel the potential serotonin rewards.

And that’s really where it begins and ends.

Chemicals, or rather your ability to manage chemicals.

Determine your choices; Ultimately your success.
