Yesterday I experienced a small feat in my physical training. I shaved off minutes of a benchmark workout. On 1/3/2012 I did it at 11:30 minutes with two pieces of equipment as an aid. Yesterday, 9/4/2012 I did it at 9:10 minutes with no assistants, just the regular benchmark. Today I feel like I'm on cloud nine let me tell you. It also makes me appreciate all the time and hard work I've put in during the last 8 months. And that's with taking 2 months off for another activity.
My next goal is a bit aggressive, but do the same mentioned benchmark workout in 7 minutes flat! I know I have the true grit to accomplish this, and I 'm looking forward to all the hard work I'm going to put in in the next 2 months.
In life one should celebrate all improvements, no matter how big or small. I would call them all victories. If we look at them as a major accomplishment it keeps up going. As I keep going through life, I tend count my blessing and victories a bit more. Why wallow in the many defeats you have.........there's no point. Count the time you ran when you felt like sitting or when your hair looked amazing!
So my next and final frontier is to track my goals and progress..........actually do it! That will help my next feat, changing my behavior. I don't want to live my life like most people and most women my age. I want to eat mounts of vegetables, and not energy drinks. I want to totally revolutionize my life........and live my 20s off the beaten path.
So I just keep telling myself I have a small victory everyday.............
