For example, I should exercise this morning while I’m visiting my friends on vacation but I have bone spurs and my doctor says I’m not allowed to run. At home I solve that problem with a stationary cycle, but my friend doesn't have a stationary cycle. So what should I do? I bet you’re thinking, "STAY IN BED! YOU'RE ON VACATION!"
That’s what I was thinking, but this morning but I asked myself these two questions:
1. What do I need to accomplish really? The answer to this question is not "ride a stationary cycle." The answer is, "I need get my heart rate up without stressing my bone spurs."
Abraham Maslow said “If your only tool is a hammer then every problem looks like a nail.”
We all have multiple tools so the second question asks:
2. Is there a different way to accomplish what I need to accomplish?
I found a trail by my friend's house that is so steep I can get my heart rate up just by walking.
What if you asked these two questions about a problem you face this week?
1. What do I need to accomplish really?
2. Is there a different way to accomplish it?
If you do, you’ll increase your lead.
