🧠 This Week’s Brain Food 🧠
I’ve always been active in sports—volleyball, football, table tennis, badminton, and occasionally basketball (my weakest). Despite looking fit, I couldn’t do 10 push-ups in a row, which always nagged at me.
In November 2024, I decided to change that by starting a daily push-up routine before my morning shower. Initially, I could only manage one shaky push-up, but I added one more each day.
This week, I hit a milestone: 10 push-ups in a row! It’s a small win, but it feels huge. Progress like this reminds me that consistency matters and even small steps can lead to big achievements.
