👺The old grumpy kung fu master had three promising students.
🌀All three were equal in skill. But he had to pick one to take over the Kung Fu school.
He gave them a task. ‘Take a stick and draw an animal in the sand, You all have 30 minutes.’⏳
He then tells them he will judge them and pick a winner.
🌀One student starts drawing a four-legged creature adding whiskers, legs, a tail and pointy ears. The next draws a big bird thinking he has 30 mins so he makes it big, it has wings with feathers and a beak, and he makes it huge in his quest to impress the master.
🌀The last student draws a wiggly line in the ground and sits on the ground.
🌀After 30 mins The master calls time. ⌛️He asks the first student disapprovingly “Is this a cat or a dog?”
🌀Then to the next student he says grumpily “What the hell is this! The picture is so big that you can only tell what it is from the sky.”
🌀Then he goes to the last student and says “I gave you 30 mins yet all you did was draw a simple snake! 🐍 There was no effort. It took you less than a second. You had the whole beach to draw yet you chose just this little patch.”
🌀Then with a smile on his face he says “It seems I have taught you well, you completed the task with great simplicity and efficiency.”
🌀The moral of the story isn’t about adding lots of arms and legs to your diet making it so huge and complicated, it’s about making it as simple as you can.
🌀Start with splitting your protein across 3-4 meals add in some veggies, drink water and keep your step count high by being active often. Eat carbs around your workouts. Once you have this down, then you can get fancy. 🪭
