Hello Blog Readers! (mostly my mom)
Last time I posted I spoke about how I hadn't done the challenge for a few weeks and how I wanted to change things around and how I wanted to re-motivate myself. Well this is what I decided: I want to keep doing this. My husband said it was the happiest he had seen me in a while, and frankly I really want to learn how to roll with the punches.
So I will be doing my best check in every night and keep on trucking with the challenge. I realize now that being accountable is helpful for me to reach my goals. I just want to find a balance between being accountable and finding one more way to be hard on myself and feel guilty. So let's take this opportunity to learn that!
I will be contuning the challenge, but it will no longer be limited to 60 days, it will now be "see how long I can keep certain habits" type of challenge. I will still blog to talk about it, but the posts will no longer be list like, they will just be how I felt that day.
Here we go:
Today was alright. I went to the gym and did some good walking and a little strength training and I am surprised I followed through with that. I find myself having a hard time motivating myself to get ready for work, and then when I get there I am not in a good mental place, but I am working on ways to remedy that. I haven't done yoga in a couple weeks and now I am feeling anxious about starting it again. BUT I have a new mantra/ Self talk question "does this thought help me achieve my goals? IF so, then I want to redirect it." So here it is: I may be nervous about yoga, but nervousness and worrying about the past aren't going to help me prepare for my yoga teacher training, and they aren't going to help me be a better yoga teacher, and they aren't going to help me to be brave. I want to be brave and I want to reach my goals. Tomorrow I will do yoga.
I'm typing on the husband's computer and it is bedtime so I must finish here. I am going to keep trying. I have decided to. :)
Goodnight!
