Top 5 Excuses Why People Don’t Join Dragonboat (16/1/2009)
Recently
I came across some people who were being invited to attend a dragonboat
session on the weekend. When the weekend came around they
didn’t turn up. That gave me an incentive to find out why they didn’t come
rather than just go, oh well, they had other things on. I think these are the
top 5 excuses people make:
Time /
Priorities - My partner (wife or husband)
needed me to home or with them for something
Fitness - It
looks really hard and I’m not fit to do it.
Money - I
don’t have enough to be able to afford the dragonboat equipment
Friends - I’ll
wait until so and so joins and I’ll try it then.
Lack of
Motivation - I’m too lazy and I can’t see
myself rowing. It looks too tiring.
Until
their perfect scenerio is met then I doubt any of these people would even try
dragonboating. Maybe we could think of ways to counteract these excuses with
some other incentives.
