A little tip I picked up from a film surrounding teenage troubles: When your self-esteem plummets (like when you face rejection, get badgered at work, feel humoungously fat etc) just do things that make you feel really good. Read a great book, go grocery shopping, sing, watch some good short films, sample a new restaurant etc. It really works!!!

Running – it’s a mind thing
By merril
20/03/2012 3:06 pmhey rads and Geetha, thanks for your comments. Glad Suraj’s write-up motivated you both. All the best for the marathon in June, Geetha!!! come and read the post in case you feel low about it at any time…also, here’s something a friend shared yest:
“Don’t aim at success—the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one’s dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one’s surrender to a person other than oneself.

Running – it’s a mind thing
By Geetha
19/03/2012 8:30 pmThanks so much for this, Merril.
That was a real motivation to read. I am planning to do walk/jog the 10K marathon in June and it was truly inspiring to read your post. There are plenty of reasons that I would do it, but I still keep thinking if I did the right thing by registering for it, the first and foremost being that am I fit enough? But as I read through your post, it does hit me that you are absolutely right, it is a mind thing

Thank you for this. I am in similar position, as in attempting to push myself and my body to do what I never dreamed of or thought capable of considering injuries, weight gain and general malaise.I intend to walk/run the 5K in May, but am attempting it this Saturday just to see if I can do it. It will be a big challenge, and your post has helped immensely. It is a mind thing.

One should try wearing one of those Superman ‘underoos’ that brian921 mentioned. … really work well when you have a bad day. Gauranteed to make you feel really good.
As for me I have a collection on ‘Shaktimaan’ briefs that I bank on. They give me wings….
Or you could go on vacation to Goa.
Guess “teenage” tricks apply well beyond.
