Your body is the least interesting thing about you.⁣⁣⁣⁣Why is it that the first thing we notice and latch onto about ourselves and others is our physical appearance? For years, I chalked my worth up to how I physically looked, and it was the first thing I criticized or praised about myself when I looked in the mirror. I may have squatted 300lbs for the first time, but I still would look in the mirror and feel upset that I didn’t look a certain way, or I would feel immense joy when I looked really small and had visible abs, even though I was tired all the time and couldn’t eat a thing without tracking it. ⁣⁣⁣How about instead, we dig deeper within ourselves... and we notice someone’s joy. We notice their hobbies. We notice their accomplishments. We notice their kindness, their dedication, their heart. ⁣⁣⁣⁣So today, all I ask... is how about we notice more. In ourselves and in others. ⁣⁣⁣⁣Because our bodies are the least interesting thing about us.
