Hello again friends.
As you may or may not have seen, my blog has changed directions a bit from being recipe/vegan based into more of an all around training/advice format. Just trying something new.
Let's take a minute to address reality. At least once a week, I hear someone say, "I'd get in shape if I had the time", or "I really want to..."-but THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. Talk is cheap. I am a mom to a four year old, and a four month old, I work, go to graduate school, volunteer, keep a clean house, cook, and a zillion other things but somehow I still find time to break a sweat almost every day. Everyone is busy, but if you are too busy in your 20's, 30's, and 40's to get your shit together, you might not be around to enjoy your 60's, 70's, and 80's. I'll be the first to admit that there was a time in my life when my priorities were a hot mess, but I decided to take action and make a change.
I am not sure who came up with the mantra, "trust the process", but that is what I do every day. Life is a journey and if you can make a goal and a road-map that you actually follow to get to your goal, the possibilities are endless. By saying that, let's get real. I am 5'3" and no matter how hard I work at it I will never be a pro basketball player, so keep a realistic perspective and make your goals attainable.
While coaching I have tried to instill "positive optimism" in all of my athletes. Visualization of winning a race (or finishing a race) can be extremely helpful. If you believe it, it can happen. Trust in your own abilities and gifts and find the strength to keep moving forward. This is not the time for excuses. Get up off your ass and be the change in your life.
That is all, next week I'll start adding some pretty sweet-ass videos so check it out.
