Mind
Prior to starting this new workout program, I don’t think I ever understood the direct connection between physical positivity and mental positivity. However, I have noticed quite significant changes in how I go about the day and how I interact with others.
I have never considered myself to be a bad person, but at the same time, I know that there were certain parts of who I am and how I interact that were not up to par with the person I want to be. By feeling better physically, I have been able to carry the positivity in to every other aspect of my life. For instance, at work, I find myself much more optimistic about my day; that is not to say that I absolutely love my job. I am just much more patient with my coworkers, more willing to help, and less disappointed as my day goes on. I am able to appreciate that a few of my coworkers are constantly under pressure and busy so I am happy to help in any capacity.
More than my work, I have found that my relationship has grown significantly in just the 45 days I have been doing this. Despite a few issues here and there, I have always had a tremendous relationship with my fiancée. She has been my best friend for years now, but after a certain time together, it is common for relationships to fall in to a routine. With a new outlook on life in general, I have found a completely new appreciation for her as a person, and our relationship has been better for it. I have been able to be and do so much more; I have started to show patience, to listen and not talk, and to take nothing for granted. I have found our relationship to be better than ever, and for all intents and purposes, we have found the perfect rhythm for us.
There is a lot that can be said about the correlation between physical happiness and mental happiness. I set out to just get back to place where I was content with my physical well-being, and I have managed to find a place where my attitude has been changed in the process. A brother and good friend of mine always uses the phrase “Attitude is Altitude”, and I have really started to see that every day.
