Every time you’re faced with a decision, it’s like making a deposit or a withdrawal. The money in the bank earns interest, the withdrawals are usually spent on things that bring instant gratification…and not much more. The more money in the bank, the better your future looks.
So, the next time you’re faced with a tough decision, just think; do I want the money in the bank earning interest…or is the instant gratification worth the price…now, and later on down the road?
Every time you eat a huge bowl of fresh greens, money in the bank.
Every time you ignore the invites to the bar and hit the gym, money in the bank.
Every time you stay hydrated without having to ‘feel’ thirsty first, money in the bank.
Every time you decide the hit the hill for a healthy dose of sprints, money in the bank.
Every time you decide to add a little more weight to the bar, money in the bank.
Every time you take the time to foam roll, stretch, and meditate, money in the bank.
Every time you hear the scraping of the pavement from another prowler lap, money in the bank.
Every time you mark another 10 burpees off the to do list, money in the bank.
Every time choke down your protein shake, even though you’re not hungry, money in the bank.
Every time you go to bed early, wake up early, and get your cardio done in a fasted state, money in the bank.
Regardless if it’s the Hypertrophy & Strength Credit Union, or the Bank of Fat Loss…keep putting that money in the bank! Over time, it’s going to add up…and eventually amount to that fortune you’re striving for. We live in a nation filled with instant gratification devices, debt, and a huge dependency on big Pharma to bail us out when we fuck ourselves over the years.
When you feel like it’s just not going to pay off…keep doin’ the WORK! Put it in the bank…and build that fortune of health and fitness. Unlike those other corporate fucks…nobody is going to bail you out when you find yourself in trouble.
Do WORK. Stay STRONG.
