A Short Story of Motivation - Remember Your Why

in #blog6 years ago

The morning started to crack the night and the first rays of sun showed up, warming up the day.

The cicadas had started to sing their song. Nature was waking up.

For her, it was no ordinary morning.

It was a Big Day

It was her Happy Day

She did not waste any time. Opened her eyes, got up and hit the shower. There were tons of things to do on this day and she needed to start as early as possible.

A few minutes later someone was knocking at the door. She opened the door and her friends burst in the house, laughing, bringing coffee and breakfast with them.

The day was pacing too quickly. The hairdresser, make up artist had arrived and they started doing their thing.

Getting her ready for the big moment


She felt like she was out of her body, watching everyone. The house was filled with people laughing, talking, dancing.


She looked at the mirror. There she was. Only different. Anticipation was almost over.


She noticed her mobile phone on the desk. What time was it? Was it time to leave the house yet?

She grabbed her phone and noticed her @actifit app, it had counted 9002 steps already!

[...]

It was a chance not to be missed. Her long decided goal could have been missed for the first time!

[...]


She had to take action

A few moments later, the door closed behind her

Always, Remember Your Why


Disclaimer

This is a first (and probably last) effort of writing a short story. This story came to me during the process of some graphics I was testing for the new actifit app

For you that may not know, actifit is a mobile app that uses your motion to count your activity and when you have 10000 steps in a day, you get rewarded with 100 Actifit tokens.

But why 10 thousand steps?

Studies conducted suggest that people who increased their walking to 10,000 steps daily, experience health benefits.

I knew that even though my story sucked, I just had to post it or I would not stop thinking about it :)

It was a bit funny in my mind, but I am not sure it came out the same way I imagined

In any case, I know that most of you know me and hopefully will not change your mind about me :P

Thank You for taking the time to read my story
