I woke up feeling really good today! After the beginning of the week and dealing with those ugly demons of the "I Can't" and "Will I Ever" and many more negative feelings I finally just said there's no other choice than to suck it up and fight harder. Of course, I had to deal with a sick fur baby and some other personal issues but I said I can sit here and sulk and worry about everything or fight back and do my best to make things better and keep making the changes I want for myself. Of course, it helps to write some of this stuff out as well as talk to friends and those close to the situations. But ultimately, it's up to me how I live out each day and how I make the best of things. And when things are beyond my control I just have to let it go to a higher power (which isn't easy)! I am so thankful for those that listen to me and hope I do the same for them and others!
So today, I went into the workout with my new feeling. Even though, I'm still battling this cough I went in determined to make it through. I won't lie it was hard to catch my breath at times. And it does help to hear the trainer say keep fighting and telling me not to stop.
I'm sure they get tired of repeating themselves but heck, they're the trainers ;-) I'm always amazed at their patience but I know they're going to get tougher as I improve. And I intend to improve. I want this lifestyle change and I'm going to fight for it! I wish I was self motivated to do this on my own but I am so glad to have found this Crossfit family and then all my friends who are supporting me along the way. I do need to be pushed but I'm not giving up and I won't quit walking thru those doors to do the daily WOD! So anyone else reading this don't give up on your dreams and goals. We're all going to achieve them, one day at a time and one step at a time!
