Welllllll, identifying something I’m grateful for and showing someone kindness everyday was 100% my plan. It fell off the rails pretty quickly. Having a sick child, little to sleep and cold weather got me in a funk in a horrible way.
Once you’re in a hole it’s hard to climb out. It’s easy to smile and seem like you’re good but sometimes that only makes the hole feel deeper. What I’m learning is – surround yourself with people who validate you, people who care you’re in the hole and support you doing what you need to do to get out. For those people who seem to always have it worse or can one up you, their opinion doesn’t matter! No one else is fighting your battle. What might be a big deal to you might be nothing to another person and that’s ok.
Setting goals is something I have never done well with because unless they are public, like going to college or getting a job, I just don’t do well following through. So now I’m on the hunt for advice and tips and tricks of how to follow through because my mood swings are out of control, my weight is out of control, my fitness is at its worst, as are my eating habits. I see daily how they are negatively effecting me but I keep on the same cycle. So, my new journey is how to start a journey and keep on the path! Today I’m going to live for today and be in the moment and not worry about tomorrow. I’m not going to Starbucks, I’m getting on the treadmill, I’m packing lunch instead of eating cheese crackers and Rice Krispie treats all day and then binge eating pasta and pasta when I get home.
I’m not crazy optimistic but……let’s see how this one goes. 🙌
