I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the things that I want to start doing. I’m really doing a purging week this week to start strong.
But it is a little ironic when I think about my post for New Years last year and when I look back over the year.
Some things I find myself thinking about is
- being careful not to go overboard to a point that I quit
- How will I stay on track since I’ve set some major goals
- Is there a team I can join to keep accountability
- And so many other fears that have me questioning everything
I hate setting anything with a new year in mind but honestly it’s more about timing than a new year. See I set the goal for marathon before now. I knew the holidays would be hard and while I tried to keep to a schedule, as soon as I got busy that went away. How fitting that my previous trainers newsletter today was all about excuses. He stated that if you were promised millions of dollars would you find a way anyway to get you healthy living done?
Wow that’s pretty powerful and I do it all the time. This is a huge reason why I’m scared to commit to the marathon. I’m great at making excuses and that is not a way to live. I need to fight for my health and doing things right and subsequently this race.
So while I enter a new year with many goals, most are mini-goals to achieve a much larger goal which I’m hoping in the long run will lead to a life long of better health (looky there I made a pun)
Now tell me your story-
