Check yourself for Band-aids …

Another piece of exercise equipment? Ever wonder why somebody sells one at a garage sale and buys another one in January? Well, it can be easier to buy another one than use the one in the garage … or exercise without one, now there’s an idea!

But just ordering a treadmill (or joining a club) helps to Band-aid the dissonance between knowing what we want to do and actually doing it. When we catch ourselves going for a Band-aid, an excuse, justification, blaming somebody else, procrastination, a piece of equipment we don’t need, we can stop. We can actually do something, instead, to bring our values and actions together.

What do you want to do? What do you need to do to be true to yourself, to be true to love? Go for it! You’ll find what you CAN do is enough!
