The price you pay… is the reward you actually get

I saw a picture of someone at the gym the other day, someone I know, riding a WattBike. 

I should have been on the WattBike myself but I hadn’t managed to make it. 

I was struck by the fact that most of the time I sit on my WattBike with a promise of what’s to come if I continue to do it, a promise of a reward. 

I then realised (and not for the first time) that the price you pay is actually the reward itself. 

The doing of the thing is where the joy is, not the postponement of gratification till later.
