The day before yesterday I asked, "Where will she go?
To the moon on a bicycle? Or the top of the mountain?
Pursuing a real dream or a fictitious dream?
Answer below.
We all have dreams, some of them are achievable, tangible dreams; others are just that, dreams to the air that are also healthy within an appropriate context.
Those achievable dreams have to be "pedaled" to achieve goals.
Some athletes with incredible talents have gotten lost in the way by not pedaling with determination.
Some elite sportsmen have achieved amazing levels even without being endowed with innate physical conditions, they "pedaled" with conviction, determination and passion.
Elite sportsmen have made their passion a way of life and their work.
What about constancy in the physical activity of the rest of humanity? Those who are neither sportsmen nor passionate about a fitness lifestyle?
First let's remember that our natural design was developed in contexts of a lot of physical activity, our ancestors were nomads and it took a very long time before was created the wheel, the motor....human settlements, cities and yes, technology and its comforts; this last one has been the drop that overflowed the cup, with it sedentarism rose to pandemic levels.
We all know that sedentarism is not a good thing; precisely one of the most frequent purposes in each person's list of beginning of the year is to exercise or carry out physical activity.
It is also usual that these exercise plans are gradually postponed due to a long list of excuses, until we finally remember the following year, just as we make the new list of purposes.
¿Why is it difficult for most of us to be consistent with physical activity?
Motivations are the driving force of human behavior and are related to needs. It depends on which scale of values or hierarchy each need is located, as well as the motivational degree that leads the human to satisfy it.
Exercising regularly could be for some a second level need, either to preserve or recover health or to satisfy a need for economic income; for others it could be only a third level need such as recreation and belonging to groups; or a fourth level need such as recognition, fame or reputation in the sporting aspect.
According to my friend Mr. Maslow, first things first, that is to say, we satisfy first the basic needs and then we move forward; the preservation of health is located in the second hierarchy of needs to be satisfied.
Sport/physical activity is closely related to the preservation and recovery of the state of health, it sounds good... we would think that there is an important motivation to satisfy this need and therefore we should give priority to this aspect; but there are other important factors that intervene here, the self-care capacity of each one and the symptoms of the illness.
Silent, or tolerably symptomatic, diseases of third-generation lifestyle-related are a palpable example of poor self-care capacity.
Conclusion: To answer this question, everyone could do a self-analysis, review and locate how this is going:
Scale of Motivations - Capacity for self-care - determination - passion.
Answer to the question: ¿Where is she going?
She is on the right track...
I see motivation, passion, determination, discipline, self-care.
She goes to the moon on a bicycle, being a dreamer in good shape is necessary for emotional and mental health; She also goes to the top of the mountain pedaling for the life...
