My trainer is a brilliant man

D'oh... so simple

So there I was in the gym. After slacking off way too much for the last month, I was in the middle of a workout and Jason Speck of Crossfit Forever Strong shared with me something that was so simple, yet really brilliant and relevant to just about any part of life. The conversation went something like this

Jason: You don’t look too good, you all right?
Dean: You (huff huff) are kicking (huff huff) my ass today (huff huff).
Jason: It can be a lot easier you know.
Dean: (Huff) how is that?
Jason: Show up more often.
Homer Dean: Doh

And that is why Jason gets paid the big bucks. Four little words that got me thinking for the whole day. How true is that with just about everything in life? Want an inbox zero, work on it every day. Want to get better at using lists, use them for everything. Want to be more productive, track your time better every day.

Just about anything in life can be improved by just showing up and doing it more often.

Until next time, be productive
