Chapter 38 go to the gym

If I find myself having troubles, or mentally circling in circles like an Egyptian camel looking for water, I use intense physical activity to help me banish those troubles. These could range from a run or a country walk to a half-hour sandbagging session or a game of tennis at the stadium.Whatever it is, physical activity always lifts my spirits.On the weekends, I multisport, like running around the golf course, playing an intense game of tennis, or skiing in the Adirondacks.When the body is tired, the mind is also rested, and when I return to work, I feel refreshed and full of energy. In New York, I used to go to the club gym for an hour.No one is bothered when he's skiing or doing a strenuous exercise because he's too busy to have time for it.In the face of exercise, the mountain of troubles quickly becomes an insignificant hill, which can easily be "leveled" by a new idea and a new action.

The best "antidote" to worry is exercise.When you're upset, use more of your muscles and less of your brains, and you'll be amazed at the results.At least this method works extremely well for me, and when I start exercising, the annoyance disappears by itself.
