Ive had a hard life that i dont really want to talk about especcialy online, so ive be feel depressed an unmotivated for a bit now. i heard exercising helps but is that true where do you even get motivation to start working out? i do bascily the same things everyday and i just want to do more in my life because its getting bland-er… also if you want to share a short life story go ahead, i feel im more in the idea department/creative department but yet i do nothing and my head i cloaded with life. i feel like i should put more here but ill just leave it here.

    I have found that setting goals is the first step. You need a reason to do something. If you are working out, your motivation to do so comes from a reason, that reason is most likely because you want to build muscle or you want to lose weight. The motivation to do anything comes from you setting a goal. What do you want to achieve? Once you set that goal, you have to stick with in no matter how hard it gets. Your goal is to build muscle and you are motivated to workout. You start working out but you don’t see any results even after three long months. That is when most people quit. But that is when you should keep your head in the game, remember your goal and why you started this journey, and keep pushing; whether it is just that you have to continue working out for longer, or you need to try new workouts. Eventually you will reach your goal. I can’t tell you how long it will take, but I can tell you if you stick with it, eventually, you will reach it, and you will be proud of yourself, and become more confident than ever.
