I occasionally run into people who want some magical workout plan that will "shed inches in just hours". I do my best but it's really hard to tell them and, even more so, convince them that until they decided to do it and start doing something, anything - no matter how imperfect, nothing I say will help. I even struggle with that reality myself and I actually enjoy working out. I applaud you. I occasionally run into people who want some magical workout plan that will “shed inches in just hours”.

You're completely right, in my experience. I was a pretty good long-distance runner for quite a while--but it was never fun. When we hear, "You'll enjoy it, really!" and then we don't, we feel like we've done something wrong. We must be crappy exercisers. I like your honest take: it's not going to be a blast, but that doesn't mean it's not worth it. And this can apply to so many areas in life, like personal finance and simplicity. Failure is okay, as long as you make sure it's a temporary condition and not a permanent label you give yourself. Really great ideas here. This is awesome! You’re completely right, in my experience.
