Ben Does Life.: One of the most popular emails I receive goes something like this:

bendoeslife:

“I’m stuck. I know I need to turn my life around but I have no motivation. Have you ever been stuck? What’s your advice?”

And the truth is, I was stuck for the first 22 years of my life. It’s always there; you know you need to do something, but you don’t. It’s overwhelming to even think…

“Once we begin to create better habits—a better life—everything changes. It becomes contagious to all the other areas of life we need to improve. … To start a journey takes a reason. My reason was to find the happiness. Find your reason. And when you do, focus your efforts on life, not arbitrary numbers on a scale.”

This applies to more than weight and health and fitness.

Where do I belong? How do I turn things around before I get too far down this path?
