If the book I m reading now--about the effects of exercise on the brain--is even half accurate, it may be catalyzing a significant lifestyle change for me. I've dabbled in different forms of exercise before, but the realist in me has tended to believe that I won't truly be motivated to be consistent until I see the consequences of not doing it. "As long as I don't notice my gut getting bigger or any general symptoms of poor health, I'm just not going to worry much about it," was my mindset.
What I am learning now, however, is that by not exercising, I am actively contributing to my own cognitive decline. So . . . I want to go ahead and maybe not do that.
