Sweeet2th's Journal, 07 July 2014

After Saturday's fabulous workout victory (see my previous journal entry for all the juicy details), I knew it was time to continue to conquer the self-defeating inner dialogue that tells me I'm not "thin enough, fit enough, or strong enough" to do the things I want to do. And, with a little coaxing from a fellow FS member (THANK YOU!), I took a pretty scary step.

For the last few months, I've been engaged in a heated staring contest with a set of P90X DVD's. And today, I did it. I dusted them off and just finished my first workout! Yay!

Was it perfect? No. Is my ponytail DRENCHED in sweat as I sit typing this? Uh huh! Did I have to do a few modifications here and there? Yes. Was it challenging? You bet it was! Did I give up? Absolutely not! But most importantly, did I let that sabotaging self-talk get in my way of accomplishing something that has been in my to-do list for months? No way! Am I going to do the second workout tomorrow? You bet I am!

I've lived too long thinking I'm not good enough, not strong enough, not thin enough. It's time to say "I am enough." and start conquering more of that to-do list!
