Good you’re up and running
Well not yet but you’re ready to go.
I was worried there for a second
You seemed prepared to say no
Like you already knew what I would say
I actually didn’t have anything to say
You had me beat there.
If you wanted to you could of stayed down
There would have been nothing I could do.
You got up though
You got yourself up
Without my words or demands.
You saw power in what I’m trying to build
This resistance to a pull
A pull that wants you to remain the same.
You gave up the present moment for you
No for a you that isn’t you yet, future you.
This runs going to be special today.
It’s moments like these where you prove to yourself that you have the strength to push through, even when the pull of comfort is so strong. That pull is always there, tempting you to stay the same, to take the easy route, to avoid discomfort. But today, something changed. You made a decision, not for who you are right now, but for who you want to become. That future version of yourself who is stronger, more resilient, more disciplined—that’s who you’re running for today.
You could have easily stayed down, remained in bed, and ignored the call to action. But instead, you chose to rise, not because of external pressures, but because of an internal drive. It’s the kind of choice that sets you apart from the person you were yesterday. It’s the kind of choice that builds real momentum, and once you start moving forward like this, it’s hard to stop.
By choosing to run today, you’ve already won. The battle was never really about the run itself, but about the mental fight—the decision to push through the resistance. And every time you make that decision, you strengthen the muscle of self-discipline, the muscle of self-respect. You’re doing this not just for the person you are now, but for the person you’ll become in the future.
This run is more than just exercise. It’s a declaration that you’re not afraid to give up momentary comfort for lasting growth. It’s a reminder that you have the power to resist the pull, to break through the barriers that hold most people back. And today, you’re running not just with your legs, but with your mind, your heart, and your vision for the future. You’re running for the future version of yourself that will look back and be grateful you didn’t give in.
Each step you take today is another step toward that stronger, more capable version of yourself. You’re showing that you can, and you will, do what’s necessary—not just when it’s convenient, but especially when it’s hard. Because that’s when it matters the most. That’s when the real growth happens.
So, make this run special. Make it a testament to the power of your will, to your commitment to becoming the best version of yourself.
