Wow! Has it really been a whole week since I've been here? Yes, yes it has. Don't you just hate it when work gets in the way of work?! In any case, it's a new week, a new day, a new chance to "get it right".
Monday is Motivation day here at FreshFit, but I have to admit I am not feeling particularly motivated today. Not in a "I give up" sort of way, but in a "this is going to take a lot of convincing" sort of way. I found this quote:
It seemed fitting. I, like everyone else, am learning to not beat myself up when I make a mistake. Maybe the mistake was a cookie (yep, I have been having a thing for cookies lately) or a skipped workout (only 2 last week, YIKES!). It is not the end of the world. Tomorrow is a new day. I can make better choices, do that workout, skip that cookie. Even as I write this tonight, I am sipping tea NOT thinking about what happened last week, but thinking about what I will make happen this week.
I have managed to write out (on my handy-dandy days of the week Post-It) the things that I want to accomplish this week. I have broken them apart by day and made each list relatively small. Sure, it may be difficult to keep to my list...especially when my time to do so is limited to the "after-school" hours, but I can do it!
Sometimes all you need to find that motivation again, is a little time, a hot cup of tea, and an attitude that says: I'm closer than I was yesterday!
