Self-Analysis: Physical or Sedentary?

What I hate most about going to school is having to leave the pleasant vicinity of my home and walk for 15 minutes. The same goes for hanging out with my friends. When I make plans to go out and watch a movie, I feel excited, but at the same time I feel terrified that I must first overcome the arduous journey to the theatre. If I had to choose between the life of a millionaire athlete and a mediocre artist, I would choose the millionaire athlete. However, if the choice was between a mediocre athlete and a mediocre artist, I would choose the latter. All this goes to show that I am a sedentary person.

I may be a sedentary person, but I also care about my physical well-being, so I do try to keep a balanced diet and try my absolute best to do brief stretching exercises every morning and evening. Also, being sedentary doesn't mean that I am overweight and have social anxiety. I am well above average in physical fitness, and I like to meet and socialize with new people. The most difficult part about taking part in an activity is getting started. I find it difficult to get my heart to start pumping. However, there are times when I think, I'm so glad I chose not to sit in front of the computer and rot away on my chair. Occasionally, I actually feel like getting active and call my friends to exercise together.

I am without a doubt a sedentary person. Nonetheless, I have a desire to become active and strive to become an active individual. In conclusion, I may be sedentary, but I am physical at heart.
