True Story:
When I was in my twenties I was fortunate to work with a very special lady, called Joy.
I learnt lots from Joy, all because I made her cry.
Let me explain . . .
Joy was a beautiful lady in her 50’s.
She was overweight by her own admission, but wasn’t fat she was just very tall and broad.
When Joy arrived I could tell straight away she was like lots of people who were sent to see me, crapping themselves and lacking in confidence.
During our assessment I went through the ins and outs of her nutrition and exercise history.
Sometimes I ask people, why have they decided to start the programme now and
not before?
Some people like Joy, simply say “I want to get a bit fitter and healthier”.
My experience tells me otherwise.
So I dig a bit deeper.
“What will being fitter and healthier allow you to do?” I ask.
She is like: “um, er I don’t know”.
So I ask a different question and say:
“What can’t you do now? Something that you have done in the past, that you would like to be able to do again? Can you think of just ONE thing?”
She started to fill up and I could see tears were running down her face.
I’m thinking “oh shit, what I have done here”.
I was only about 25 at the time.
She said: “Richard all I really want to do is to be able to have a bath.”
I won’t lie; I had a tear in my eye myself.
Joy went on to tell me the story, of how she had lost her confidence going in the bath after a bad experience.
She had got stuck and had to call a neighbor for help.
Nightmare ;-(
She said that getting into the bath was ok, she did fit, that wasn’t the problem.
The problem was she didn’t have the strength in her arms to get herself up and out when she finished.
She was very embarrassed by the whole event and understandably hadn’t been in the bath since.
She told me of how the bath had been her sanctuary.
And how she would love to be able to have a good old soak again.
NOW Joy was really motivated, because I had found a very powerful WHY.
So powerful it made her cry (and me nearly).
Why am I telling you this story?
Basically I don’t want you to be like Joy was.
Don’t let the grass grow under your feet, so you lose the basic physical abilities in life.
Remember, “if you don’t use it you will lose it” like Joy did with the bath.
If you start to struggle with the stairs, don’t buy a bloody bungalow.
Take it as a sign, maybe you need to face the music, get fitter and drop a bit of timber.
