When I stop exercising, it feels like the life I want gets put off too.
Even in the brief pause to catch my breath during a workout, tasks I need to do and things I want to do line up in my mind.
Scenes
- Even when I catch my breath, tasks come to mind. — When I pause during a workout, everything I need and want to do comes to mind at once. I spend a long time wondering what to do first before moving again.
- I choose the most urgent things first. — When I get home and open my calendar, I mark the tasks with the closest deadlines first. The things I’ve long wanted to do are still left in the blank spaces.
- Temperament shapes where your energy goes first. — In Myeongrihak, your saju temperament isn’t a personality chart. It’s a map for seeing where you tend to put your energy first. I look at the current flow and your living circumstances, too.
- Write one thing you want to do in a square. — Tonight, write one thing you want to do on your calendar, then note a time that might work beside it. Seeing the open time can also show you the limits of your current schedule.
- A pause to catch your breath can be a guide, too. — If you take the things that come to mind when you pause during a workout one by one, you may notice that what’s urgent and what matters to you aren’t always the same.
