I find myself resisting strength… [View all]
…because I feel that I already work so hard and I’m afraid that being stronger will just prepare me for harder work. I think that what I want is relief. So I resist accessing power and growing stronger.
This is ridiculous. Is it harder to lift something heavy if you are strong or weak? I am already working hard. Becoming stronger may prepare me for more responsibility, but it will PREPARE me for it. Things won’t actually get harder. They will get easier.
I need to welcome all kinds of exercise.
