Mr. Johnson met Churchill himself in October 1946 when he was a boy about to go up to Oxford. “He gave me one of his giant matches he used for lighting cigars. I was emboldened by that into saying, ‘Mr. Winston Churchill, sir, to what do you attribute your success in life?’ and he said without hesitating: ‘Economy of effort. Never stand up when you can sit down, and never sit down when you can lie down.’ And he then got into his limo.”
I get some of my best business ideas when I'm walking.
Why not run then?
I do, but when I run I tend to switch off, zone kind of thing.
I think a long brisk walk gets enough endorphins going to get some interesting thought patterns happening.
yes, walking does change ones thinking.
Perhaps your mind relaxes when walking?
Walking is good sprint but jogging is probably better
Think of it this way
If you just set a human being down on a chair in an empty room
Fairly quickly he would start to develop nothing but negative self-talk and anxiety
That's why solitary confinement is a cruel punishment
Now when you exercise
Oxygen is diverted to your muscles
And your brain which actually uses a lot of oxygen at rest
Gets shut down
Those negative emotions don't materialize when you're exercising
Because your body is concentrating on sending the oxygen and sugar to your muscles
It's why exercise is really really beneficial
And sitting down is really really detrimental
When we are dealing with a virus which definitely spreads in confined spaces
What we should be doing is all out exercising
In the fresh air
It would help demolish the anxiety and hypochondria which now appears to have gripped many Australians
And it would also pose no threat of viral transmission
I actually heard the chief health officer of Queensland reaffirm last night that footballers in hotel quarantine must now gaffer tape there sliding door shut and send a picture of the gaffer tape to the authorities
It's almost unbelievable that someone could be so poorly scientifically informed and be making policy decisions
