Assuming you don't already do this, you could start by getting fit or at least incorporating weekly exercise into your permanent lifestyle. You'll accomplish a few things here:

-set personal goals for yourself that you can achieve through discipline and dedication. you will feel satisfaction from achieving your goals and the discipline you achieve can be applied to other areas of your life outside of exercise

-as you get more fit and healthy you will literally feel better physically and mentally. after you get through the initial difficulty of getting yourself accustomed to doing it consistently, you should no longer feel a sense of dread around it but instead be able to enjoy the dopamine rushes from working out

-human beings are fortunate to be able to wield physical prowess in many different things. our ancestors were hunters and gatherers and had to survive in harsh environments. obviously in this age it isn't necessary to be akin to a tribal warrior, but enabling yourself to be a part of those who can use their body the way it was meant to traditionally throughout human history can be satisfying and empowering and assist you in other areas of your life

-get sexier over time and fight the adverse affects of aging

You can begin this without even getting a gym subscription. Even just going outside for a 30 min walk 4 days a week can make a big difference in your life. Just keep it up and make it a part of your lifestyle, not just something you're gonna do for a month and quit. Look up couch to 5k, a program designed for sedentary individuals who may not even be able to run a mile, and you can start out walking if need be. If you want to get into weight lifting, there's plenty of great resources online. I can recommend some if you're interested.

You don't have to take this advice but I recommend it because I truly believe not only should everyone aspire to incorporate exercise into their lifestyle for all the aforementioned reasons but because you don't need much at all to start. It can be as easy as developing discipline in walking 4x a week for 3 months and then incorporating other kinds of training in the future when you're ready. Nothing is stopping you asides from physical handicap or disability
