I have rationalized it with the “wealth before health” attitude that seems to be prevalent in the startup world (even though wealth is not my primary motivator, you get the idea). “I just need to make it through this year, and then I can exercise” and “exercise will kill my productivity” are two lies I have been telling myself for the past several years. I have taken a similar attitude with my diet, which is far from great.
Wow. That describes my attitude for the last year or so to a "T". Pushing off "getting healthy" for the "more successful" me that lies ahead. No more of that. I definitely needed to read this article tonight - time to get back to a regular routine and try to live a more maintainable lifestyle!
