Excuses


We never run short of excuses when it comes to avoiding exercise or any activity that can be beneficial for our health and well being. Even a thing as little as a healthy change in diet seems too cumbersome and we suddenly get enriched with a mysterious supply of justifications for others as well as for ourselves. The top excuses are listed here and also, why those excuses should never be used.

 No time/ I am too busy: This actually translates to “I am too lazy”! Believe it or not, this is the most lame excuse for skipping a workout. If we start looking closely, there are plenty of opportunities within a span of 24 hours that can be made use of for exercising. You could wake up an hour earlier than usual and go for a jog or you could cut down on the time that you spend watching TV or other useless activity and make space for a healthy alternative.

 I am thin. I don't need a change in diet: A slim physique is in no way synonymous with a healthy body. You need to seriously start analysing your food habits and your level of physical activity and be honest with yourself if you want a long and healthy life ahead.

 Today, let it be. I'll start a healthy routine from tomorrow: And we all know that this “tomorrow” never comes and it is only a matter of days before we completely ditch our wellness regime. A strong will power is necessary along with sufficient motivation. Instead of thinking of new escape routes, start thinking of ways in which you can make your plan a

success.

A healthy mind and a healthy body are two of the most essential elements in our lives. We need to get over our childish tendency of making excuses and act like grown ups to take the responsibility of our well being.
