There’s nothing quite as dull as sitting in an office all day. The restless urge to get up and move, paired with the mental gymnastics of pretending to be busy—it’s like an invisible drain on your stamina, just keeping yourself seated. So, I decided to shake things up and started commuting by bicycle. Now, I ride 18km round trip every day—except when the sky decides to rain, of course.
Life is full of quirky “quests” like having to talk to clients you don’t quite click with or facing sudden waves of tasks when you least expect them. To conquer these quests, the real hero’s power is stamina—just like hit points (HP) in a game.
Exercise is like the training you need to boost your HP and stamina, critical for advancing through any adventure. Just like a player character with strong base stats can handle long battles and tough explorations, in life, building up your strength through exercise helps you tackle the daily grind with ease, keeping stress and fatigue at bay.
Since I hopped on my trusty bike, I can feel my “concentration skill” leveling up. And after wrapping up my mini-quests throughout the day, I kick back at the office, taking a moment to recharge before the next adventure calls.
