Direction matters more than speed. 🧭

If you’re heading the right way, it’s okay to move slowly — but if you never start, you’ll never get anywhere.

This morning I went for a 5 km run and started doing some quick math.

It was my 40th workout this year. The goal? 200 workouts in 2025.

So I did some pocket math.

Roughly 120 days have passed, and I have about 240 days left. That means I need 160 more workouts — which equals 6 workouts per week.

That’s doable. But life doesn’t always go as planned.

So I asked myself: what if I split my days?

A morning session and an evening session — that gives me 14 chances a week, not 7.

And 6 out of 14? That feels realistic.

It’s not about asking, “Why did I mess up the first quarter?”

It’s about asking, “How can I still reach my goal anyway?”

And that’s the mindset shift.

I’m not sure if 200 workouts will guarantee a better body.

Maybe I’ll eat wrong. Train wrong. Recover poorly.

But one thing I’m absolutely sure of: if I don’t do it, nothing will improve.

And if I keep this up not just this year — but for 10 years —

Then the next 20–30 years of my life will look completely different than if I let myself decline.

So that’s the plan:

📌 Simple thinking.

📌 Pocket math.

📌 Focus on direction, not perfection.

The rest — we figure out along the way.
