Me First: What do you Want!

So this morning I jumped up from my bed at 7:30, pulled on some workout pants, grabbed my shoes, ran to the kitchen to find something to put in my stomach, and  ran outside to my car. The time 7:50. I had to be at the gym by 8:00 to meet my trainer. When I got to my car my passenger side window had fallen down in the door panel and I could not get it up. So the inside of my car was exposed to the world. I stood for a moment fuming wondering rather it would be alright to take my car. UGH!!! I'm mad thinking about it right now. I thought I have two options, I could jump in my car get to the gym on time, train and hope that nobody takes anything from my car. Or I could spend the next 30 minutes upset, trying to fix a problem that I know that I can't and miss my training session.

I want to loose  25 lbs. before the end of summer so that means I have to make certain sacrifices, such as working out despite how I feel or what life throws at me. Some times I get off track and tend to go back to my old habits such as eating the wrong things, or just being lazy and refusing to work out like I should, but after 3 months of going up and down on the scales I have figured out what I want. I want to be healthy, and loose 25lbs. before the end of the summer. So whats the problem?

I HAVE TO GET OVER MYSELF!!!

There are times when we know what we want and what we have to do and we just don't. Why? Well because we don't want to get up at 6:00 to write, we don't want to get off work and go sit in a classroom to earn that master's degree, we think people are going to judge us, look at us weird or give us their unsolicited opinion. Well no matter how you look at it all those things will more than likely happen as we reach for our goals or try to achieve the seemingly unachievable. The truth behind it all is that we do not want to be uncomfortable. We don't to step outside of out comfort zone, push ourselves to be great. So I say to you ,

Anything worth having is worth working for! Nothing comes for free.

Loosing that 25lbs is what I want so I'm going to live in that uncomfortableness for a while. So I am making 8 a.m workouts, and healthy food choices a priority. That strawberry short cake in the fridge is not worth that 25lbs. Thank about it, weigh the options and then make that decision that's keeping your from what you want.
