Changing it up

What’s the best way to grow?

Typically by doing whatever you aren’t doing now.

If you want to improve your health, change it up.

If your exercise routine solely consists of cardio, lift some weights. If you’ve been lifting weights for years, spend some time doing yoga or trying out different movements.

It even applies within a specific activity. If you typically lift weights for 5-8 reps, spend some time lifting lighter weights for 20 reps. If you typically lift quickly, try going slower. If you usually go slow, try speeding it up.

And it doesn’t just apply physically either.

If you only read fiction, try a biography. If you only read nonfiction, pick up a novel. If you typically have the radio, or a podcast, on while you’re driving, try silence.

The easiest places for significant growth are wherever you aren’t focusing your efforts now.
