10 excuses for not walking (and why they're not true)

The art of apology

We're all pros at coming up with excuses. But today, we're taking them apart one by one. With love.

Excuse 1: "It's raining"

Reality check: You've got an umbrella. Or a raincoat. Or a covered mall. Rain doesn't melt humans (we checked).

Excuse 2: "I don't have time."

Reality: How much screen time did you watch today? Even 15 minutes of walking counts. Come on, we know you've got 15 minutes.

Excuse 3: "I'm tired"

Reality check: A short walk GIVES you energy. It's counter-intuitive but scientifically proven. Try before you judge.

Excuse 4: "My Nevomon doesn't care"

Reality: Your Nevomon has a sinking hunger gauge and can DIE now. He clearly doesn't care.

Excuse 5: "It's not going to change today!

**Reality check: Every step counts. Literally. 1 step > 0 steps. Math is on our side.

Excuse 6: "I'll walk tomorrow"

Reality: The procrastinator's "tomorrow" doesn't exist. There's just an infinite number of "tomorrows" that never come.

Excuse 7: "I hurt somewhere".

Reality: OK, this one may be valid. Listen to your body. But if it's just a little soreness... it'll go away with a walk.

Excuse 8: "I'm already active at work"

Reality check: Great! But did your phone count those steps? Validate anyway, your Nevomon deserves these Nevos.

Excuse 9: "The ranking is already set".

Reality: There's always next week's ranking. And the quests. And XP. And your health. Shall we continue?

Excuse 10: "I'm not motivated"

Reality: Motivation comes AFTER the action, not before. Put on your shoes, do 5 minutes, and we'll talk.

Conclusion

We love you, but your excuses, a little less. Take a walk. Your Nevomon (and your body) will thank you.
