Staying motivated has always been difficult for me due mostly to the self-doubt I have for myself. It is something that I am slowly conquering and with the help of my favourite blogs it is starting to get easier for me.
Today while reading one of my most treasured blogs I came across a gold mine of motivation. First there was the 10k Down and Dirty Mud Run in the Bronx then the NYC Tunnel to Towers 5k 2011 and then a post on motivation - what more could a girl ask for!
"I remind myself why I want this. You have to figure out why you want it. That's your motivation"
"I was motivated by the progress I made at the gym, or when I saw I could try something new, not be great at it, and do it anyway, the best way I could. I was motivated by how much better I felt - I breathed better, walked better, felt better when I moved or sat or crossed my legs. I was motivated when I realized oh my goodness - I really am enjoying my life now! How awesome is this and why didn't I do this sooner?!"
"Here's the tricky part: You just have to keep your motivations in mind when you're making decisions every day"
It really is an awesome post and one that I will refer back to often. As always Sheryl has come to my rescue. It's as though she knows what to write about just as I need it the most. My motivation has seriously been lacking over the past 5-6 weeks, but now, it's back. Thank you so much Sheryl, you are my hero!
