Aloha my lovelies! Welcome to or back to my blog. I hope you’re all having a wonderful, beautiful day!
For me, today has been pretty good with a bit of stress sprinkled in. The beginning of the day started out great. I had a very health breakfast, wasn’t rushing, and felt truly alive and ready to take on the day. As I left my house though, the weather was a bit of a turn-off. It was cold and windy outside, but I smiled through the cold and focused on my happy music rather than the bitter weather. My work day began with a stressful project; my partner in the project wasn’t working today, so I had to complete much of the project by myself. I got it done though, and continued my day quite happily. Later on in the morning, I had a great time working with some friends on a different project. Overall, my day was fantastic! The weather got even colder by afternoon, which surprised me as I walked outside. I ran quite quickly to my ride home!
Once back, I knew that I wanted to workout, but I wasn’t feeling motivated at all. I decided to just get it done and almost forced myself through the exercises. I know that probably isn’t the best mindset to have… but I really wanted to get in some exercise today, and even though I wasn’t feeling it, I got through an intense, hour-long workout. I was honestly counting down the minutes until I could stop, but I’m proud of myself for not giving up even when I was discouraged. Today was arm day, and I was happy to find out that I was able to complete my entire workout with my heaviest dumbbells! I still experienced my fair share of short rests and doubts about whether I’d make it, though.
I’m hoping that, starting tomorrow on Day #100 of this journey, that I’ll be able to motivate myself like today and continue to grow in my endurance. The past 100 days have flown by since I first started both my fitness revival and this blog, and I’m so glad I’ve gotten to share this experience with you. Moving forward, let’s motivate and encourage each other to reach our goals even when they’re difficult!
I want you all to remember that today is a magnificent day to be happy and to spread joy. Be the light in someone’s day! Have a lovely rest of your day and I’ll talk to y’all on Day #100. Adios!
