Is Hard Graft the Key to a Fulfilled Life?
Today in Keely's Been Listening To Too Many Podcasts…
Jeff Krasno was on a recent episode of Dr. Gabrielle Lyon's show talking about his experience losing scads of weight and gaining health by embracing doing uncomfortable things.
What does this have to do with umpiring? Everything.
We talk about trying to sell youngsters and other recruits on how much fun umpiring is, and of course, it is. But there's infinite ways to have fun in modern society.
What umpiring provides that's hard to find these days is real discomfort, without life- or career-threatening consequences. Failure, mistakes, inconvenience, pressure…it's all there, in your favourite sport.
The full episode is a deep dive into all kinds of healthy living practices, so worth a listen if you've got the ear room for it.
