Running, are you getting carried away by the compliment?
We are often praised and flattered by others, but this external affirmation can sometimes become a burden to us. In the sport of running, it is worth thinking about how to maintain a rational and Buddhist attitude and not get carried away by the praise of others.
Have you ever tried too hard or even risked a run because of someone else's compliment?
In our lives, people always love to hear good words and compliments. No matter how good a runner is, when someone compliments them on "you're awesome" or tells their story to their friends, they feel joy inside. This compliment can sometimes make us lose our minds and become too perfectionist.
In the sport of running, we often meet runners who stick very well. Regardless of the weather, they are always able to wake up early, schedule their time wisely, and even exercise in other ways. These people are undoubtedly the best in running. However, when we surround ourselves with such people, we often can't help but praise them and even exaggerate flattery. Although this kind of flattery makes people a little arrogant inside, it can also bring some negative effects.
For example, when we insisted on running every day and clocking in the running group, we suddenly wanted to be lazy or couldn't clock in because of something, we would go through a struggle of ideas. Because we are worried about the image that will affect the minds of others, we have to get up earlier to allocate our time reasonably. Sometimes, the higher others hold us up, it will become a burden to us, and few people can truly stop our hearts.
There are also extreme situations that can put runners in dangerous situations. For example, we drank alcohol and stayed up late the night before, but we had planned to run the first day. If we continue to run, then there is a lot of stress on the heart and there is a risk of downtime; If we don't run, we are already at the set height, and after a few lazy times, our height in the hearts of others will also drop. In fact, in the final analysis, it is still a psychological effect. We should run a Buddhist point, as long as it is exercise, there is not much difference between the number of weekly runs and the times. We don't need to force ourselves to do anything, we should be unconsciously attracted to the sensation of dopamine and endorphins, not because a few compliments from others make us overly excited and impulsive.
