Okay, I’ll admit it I’ve lost some of my motivation – AGAIN – to go the health club! I don’t really know why, but I have my plethora of excuses: “Oh it’s the time of year, it’s getting colder & darker in the mornings, I get bored with watching the same people, it’s too hot, it’s too cold, I’m too self-conscious." I astonish myself how I can come up with new reasons for today, tomorrow and two weeks from now as to why I can’t go today. Truly amazing the mind games I play with me.
During my walk/run this morning I was trying to figure out why I have such a reluctance to go do something that I know is good for me, that I’m glad I’ve done after I’m finished, but I just don’t want to go. I spent the majority of my walking time today trying to figure me out - tough thing to do at 6:00 a.m. Needless to say, I didn’t figure it out. Its times like this, when you least expect it, that you receive that little “nudge”. My nudge came in the form of an email I received from a friend telling me he had re-read my blog “Finding Me Again”. He told me after re-reading it he felt like he’d caught up with me again (we haven’t talked in awhile), remembered why he likes me & thanked me for being real, honest & encouraging.
Wow, I needed to hear that today and I needed the nudge that came with it. So tomorrow morning there will be no excuses, I will be at the health club at 5:00 am. Thanks ‘t’!
