Ho Hum...

It has been a while since I last blogged.  Honestly, it's because I feel like I'm boring these days... I go to my H.I.I.T.classes, I try to fit in Pump twice a week, I jog once in a while and that's about it.  I haven't given up, but I also feel lost.  Perhaps it is because the rest of life seems even busier than normal: it's baseball season for Braeden, I have performances coming up at work, etc.;  I haven't really taken the time to think about what is next.  Or maybe it's because I'm scared to set any goals.  I started the year off strong with some pretty big goals (click here to read what they were - they're down at the bottom of the blog entry), and I failed to meet them.  Asa says I just really don't believe deep down that I can succeed, and I think he's probably right. I need some "me time" to just refocus and decide what I really want to do/be!

  2. Gals, When you feel the doldrums coming on, look more deeply and with a thankful heart, at the gifts and abilities you have been given. Then consider whether or not you fully utilize all those gifts. Ask you higher power to help you to become all he planned for you to be. Don't be surprised at what might happen.

  3. Giving up is easy, and will only allow you to fail in the future. If this was easy, it would not be called WORKING out. We all get bored, and frustrated when things don't go as fast as we want, or go our way. Try something totally new, eat something totally new, and DO NOT beat yourself up for things not going well. Stay strong and you'll get there. For us moms, there are not enough hours in a day to get everything done, let the small stuff go, there is always tomorrow... Just ask Scarlet O'Hara!!!

  4. As long as you don't quit, you are still working toward your goals! You will get there, even if it takes longer than you initially anticipated or planned. I agree with the previous post. Do something new to spark that excitement and reinspire your motivations! Set a big goal, a new race to work toward, find a workout buddy that pushes you. You can do this. It's all part of the process and it is a process. Find joy in the journey, learn along the way! You are doing great!!
