Define Your Passion: Health

Frank Yang and Determination

In a previous post I had mentioned my three main passions.

To start things off, I make health and fitness a key foundation to life. To live a better life.


Health is important to me because of the obvious:
  • To maintain a fully functional body without a need for outside support
    • no more medicine
    • no need for a walker as an elder
    • to just feel good
  • To look aesthetic. With a great appearance you tend to:
    • feel better about yourself
    • help build confidence in ways you didn't feel possible
To dig more into why I value health is because of how it can define who I am. I see so many people always saying they want to lose weight or be more athletic, but usually end up giving up because it's too much work. I feel with the one body you are given, why not try to progress. I would even go as far as saying evolve into a more perfect individual.

Development of my body bleeds into other aspects of my life. One thing I focus on is muscular development (bodybuilding), because I like the idea of being able to sculpt my image. Bodybuilding takes time and has no short cuts or a single instant solution. Even with steroids or HGH, you have to put work in regardless.

Bodybuilding has helped to teach me how to apply:
  • Patience. Bodybuilding doesn't happen over night
  • Dedication. You have to put the effort in to see muscles grow
  • Knowledge. You have to truly understand why it works to be effective
My health has given me more insight as to how I want to live my life and has also shown me that if I truly wanted something I would work for it until I obtained it. If I wanted to lift this certain weight, I would get there. If i wanted to have the best sculpted physique, I would continue training. You learn to build better desire.

Working on my health defines my:
  • Desire to understand my body and myself better
  • Desire to never give up
  • Desire to keep moving forward
  • Desire to continue living so I can keep doing the things I love





Be determined to reach what you truly want

Having the Bare Minimum





There isn't a real reason not to start something that you've wanted to do. I'm here because I felt that I've hit a rather difficult obstacle to get around. I want to hopefully influence those who also have been stuck and don't know where to go from here.


To start things off I have made a decision to try live out and be more independent with what I have left.




This sums up my living and bedroom area as this is a studio apartment.

Time to make the most of what i have.

In the start of all this, there is someone that has given me a lot of motivation to better myself torwards my health and well being. 


 

 Although I haven't watched all his videos, I've learned a lot from Scooby. Here's to him, and thanks for helping me come to the realization that I can do more with less.





Start with yourself and understand what you really want to get to where you want to be
