Life Before Sat Navs ðš
|
When I passed my driving test (4th time lucky, embarrassingly) Sat Navs were still pretty new â â â I remember a brand new Garmin or Tom Tom being like ÂĢ400 ðģ â â â Mad when you think you can use Waze or Google Maps on your phone for free now Reader â â â For my first couple of years of driving, I used maps ðš â â â Yep, those massive ring binders, with different pages for different bits of the M4 â â â Looking back, they were a nightmare to use â â â You had to take your eyes off the road â â â You constantly lost where you actually were on the page ðĪŠ â â â And if you were on a country lane in the middle of nowhere you had to squint and hold the thing right up to your face ð§ â â â I don't know how I didn't cause multiple fatal crashes. â â â Anyway, those days are gone and we don't need to divide our attention between the road, and a highly detailed topographical map of Surrey anymore â â â Now we can just tap our destination into Waze and it'll take us there without any fuss âķ â â â It'll even try to avoid traffic (impossible if you live in South East England, believe me) ðððð â â â 99.9% of people would agree that this is better than using a map â â â So WHY do people still try to navigate weight loss on their own?! â â â Sure some people just have the right mix of knowledge dedication and patience first time â â â But MOST people I speak to who want me to coach them have tried multiple times and failed â â â Trying to muddle through the process on your own is like trying to find a specific blade of grass in a massive field using an old-style road map â â â Sure, you could do it, but it's going to take forever, and you'll keep going off track â â â If only you had a Sat Nav â â â It's probably one of the weirdest compliments I've had, but one my ex-clients told me that using me was like using a Sat Nav â â â I just told them what to do, and they did it â â â *They didn't need to think* â â â They just followed instructions, and eventually, they got to their destination ð â â â Sure they hit some traffic here and there, but they didn't mind because they knew they were going in the right direction â â â So I guess I am a bit like a Sat Nav. â â â If you're trying to lose weight, you don't have to use me â â â But investing some money (like paying for that Tom Tom) means less stress, less thinking on your part, and a lower risk of driving head-on into an 18-wheeler delivery truck â â â Ok that last one doesn't really work but you get the idea â â â So if you're trying to lose weight, don't get lost on the B5614 â â â Tell me where you want to go, and I'll take you there â â â Contact details are just above my fancy new logo... ð â â â â Joe â WhatsApp: +447590988201 Insta: https://www.instagram.com/joe_johnson_9_to_5/â Review Me: https://g.page/r/Cff1IczzxIbBEBM/reviewâ Website: 9-to-5-nutrition.comâ Email: joe.johnson@9-to-5-nutrition.com |
