Not #100: Under Construction and Coming Attractions
So THIS Is Fitness | Health, Fitness, Running & Weight Loss
Yes, I know. You were probably expecting this upload to be Episode 100, weren't you? Well - it's not. Instead, I'm here to tell you WHY, a hint of what's coming, and a special preview of our special something else.
info_outline"Oh wow - that's crazy!"
When we do things that aren't "normal", people don't know what to make of it. But... why is "normal"... normal?
We understand how the world works.
Every day we go about our lives with a certain understanding of how things are. We know what to expect. How things are typically going to go. What we can and can't do - should and shouldn't do. We know what to expect of our peers, too - all the same! Things that fall in the realm of the ordinary. So when someone does something out of the ordinary - we question them. We ridicule them. We call them (or the thing they're doing) "crazy".
But why?
After all - who decided what "normal" is, and thus, what "crazy" is? I challenge you to question your idea of "normal", and join me for a talk about how, exactly, to do that - in episode 90 of the podcast.
