I dragged myself to the gym, not liking it one bit. But my desired end goal kept flashing in my mind plus a sense of accountability to my fitness coach.
As I dive into workout, it got easier and better. During one of the sets, I looked out of the window and saw this.
An unexpected gift which made the huffing and puffing all worth it. 
This reminded me of the many times when getting started on a task can be tedious or daunting. But once we get started, our initial dismay may melt away. And along the way, you may be surprised by unexpected rewards.
