Great Things Take Time.

I literally deleted an entire post because I realised that I've been writing about the same shit over and over again, and that those things don't matter enough to me for me to be writing about them. I used to love writing because I used to write about stuff that mattered to me. Something I haven't been doing for a while now.
So here's to a new beginning.

When I was younger, say about three years back, I heard these magic stories about people, who joined the gym and somehow magically lost 20 kgs in a span of two or so months.
Let me just say, BULL-FUCKING-SHIT.

Okay, what we weren't told then, was that it requires hard work and dedication. I started going religiously to the gym about a few months back. Before that, I used to go, but on a twice or thrice (when I was lucky) per week basis. The problem wasn't that I didn't like it. The problem lay in getting myself back in the gym after a rest day. Fast forward to a few months back, when I genuinely started loving going to the gym. I'm not sure how it exactly happened. I just know that now, I literally have to make an effort to not go to the gym.

I think the change came about when I stopped being so self-consious and actually went and tried out new things about which I'd previously researched. I realised that there were so many things and machines that I had never even thought of experimenting with.
One other thing that helped me is getting over my shy side when it came to asking others for help, because let's face it, we all need help at the gym, even if it's only to spot us.

The only way you will get any results or gains at the gym is with hard work and determination. Don't fret if you don't get that to that desired number at that very second because great things take time. So don't give up.
