Get That Good Feeling

It's this fear of discomfort
People have this extreme feeling in their mind
When it comes to their associations with exercise
They want to avoid discomfort
They feel like any type of exercise is just like something
To be avoided, that's not for me, fuck that
I don't wanna sweat, I don't wanna strain
I don't wanna sweat, I don't wanna strain
A lot of times this association that they have
Is about the beginnings of getting in shape
It's not about once you're actually fit
'Cause once you're actually fit
Then you look forward to, it feels great
If I can't get a workout in
I look at my schedule and go
Oh shit, I don't have any time for workout
Which means I'm not going to get that good feeling
Get, get that good feeling
And so instead of looking at it like
"Oh, I've gotta go grunt and sweat."
I'm thinking I'm not gonna feel good
I'm not gonna feel relaxed
I'm not going to feel carefree
Even appreciative, like my appreciation of things
It gets enhanced greatly after exercise
I just feel better

I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling
Get that good feeling
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling
Get that good feeling

It feels great to most people
Their associations are to avoid
Anything that's uncomfortable
It's so illogical
Discomfort is your friend, it really is
Discomfort, not being happy and content
With certain situations in life
They are massive, massive motivators
They're amazing at facilitating change
Yet our instinct is to avoid those
And just sit on the couch
And watch some fucking reality show
It's bizarre
When I would get really disciplined
And really consistent with my workouts
I almost feel momentum
I feel like there's push behind me
Like, all right, yeah, now I'm doing it

I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling
Get that good feeling
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling
Get that good feeling

Yeah, now I'm doing it
Yeah, now I'm doing it
I'm doing it all the time now
I'm looking forward to the next time
And it makes that resistance much weaker
And it makes my motivation
And my discipline much stronger
I think a lot of it is based on just the consistency
Blowing something off is not just bad for you
Physically, it's also bad mentally
Because then that option is now available
The option to fuck off
You did it before and you're probably gonna do it again
And you'll get mediocre results
Not just in that aspect of your life
Maybe in all aspects of your life
That option to fuck off, when you embrace it
That is a pathway that you might choose
When it comes to dealing
With conflict in your personal life
Business, business decisions, career decisions
Like an uncomfortable decision that you might be faced with
What your pathway is in life, but you don't do it
Instead, you fuck off
And that inclination to fuck off
That gathers momentum as well
The inclination to be disciplined, that comes with momentum
I think both things, you take a path

I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling
Get that good feeling
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling
Get that good feeling

It feels great
It feels great
You take a path
Or the path of the fuck off
Your body is like a race car that you can juice up yourself
You can add the fat car, you can add, improve suspension
You can beef up the horsepower in the engine
You can do all that yourself
Or you can just choose to have this shitty body
No one's under the illusion
That you're gonna live forever
But you are enhancing the experience
That you're currently involved in right now
You are alive, you do experience this life
But do you experience this life optimally?
Is it as enjoyable as it can be?
And we all know that there's a spectrum
For that enjoyability
We've all had times in our life where it's not been so great
And then times in our life where everything came together
Like what a fucking great day, woo!
Great day, woo!
Great day, woo!
Great day, woo!
Make more of those
Make more of those
Make more of those
You can make more of those
And then the whole thing is better
And then the whole thing is better
And I think when that whole thing is better
It affects everybody you touch
Everybody that's around you
Everybody you come in contact with
That in turn, I mean, it sounds so grandiose
But in turn can affect the entire race of human beings
