This is a little break from the usual flow of exercise-related posts.
I sat in my living room and looked at the Christmas tree and thought about all of the commercialism that we are bombarded with every year. Maybe it’s a little cliché to say this, but I hope we can remember the true meaning of Christmas.
The holiday spirit is all about turning your mind away from yourself and looking towards others. If you do it with the right frame of mind, you will quickly discover that helping those around you also brings joy to yourself.
I’m sure you’ve already gone out and either made or purchased your Christmas gifts and they are sitting under a tree, just waiting to be opened. In another week or so you will be thinking of your New Year’s resolutions for the upcoming year.
Take just a moment this Christmas and think about those around you and how you can help them to make progress as well. That could mean deciding to bring someone else to the gym with you after the holidays, or maybe it means just giving some encouragement to them.
Whatever you do, just try to help someone else’s life become better. Make a little plan today so that your upcoming New Year’s resolutions will do something more than just help yourself. Help another person to discover the joys of working out and going to the gym. Who knows, it might just turn out to be the effective and long-lasting gift you could give.
After all — ‘Tis better to give than to receive.
