Have you asked questions over and over trying to get the answer you desire? Have you approached the same person asking for help but then not doing the required work? Have you asked the same question to several different sources and continue to take no action?
Then you are, in fact, an askhole.
I’ve known several askholes. In the fitness industry, there’s always questions about how to get leaner, stronger, lose weight…you get it. Now, upon a first meeting, these are conversations and general information gathering. However, after that, when being approached repeatedly, well, things get dicey. There’s a difference of wanting to learn versus looking for the easy way out.
Don’t misunderstand me. I’m all for teaching and sharing and learning myself. I actually am guilty of sharing too much and not only shorting myself in my wallet by giving valuable information away, but also overwhelming my audience. So, I do understand that many times this leads to more questions. Again, not a problem. It’s when it becomes the same questions or very similar questions that someone turns into an askhole.
So if you know what to do, then you should do it. If you’re looking to learn something, you should do it. If you need help, you should ask for it.
But then it’s up to you to take action.
