Yeah, it’s the same game of fighting that inner “I’ll do it later” voice. A workout is just a deadline for your own body, and if you skip it, you get the same guilt you’d feel if a paper was overdue. The trick is to treat the gym like a mini project—break it into steps, give yourself a hard stop, and don’t let the procrastination side of you call the shots. It’s all about training that mental muscle to stay in the zone.

Sounds like a workout manifesto. I’ll just make sure my “deadline” is on the gym schedule instead of the inbox. No excuses, only the occasional “Did I really need that extra rep?” moments.
