Today or was it yesterday…. maybe the day before… I dunno! Ha! It was kinda a rough day. Its hard because each new day presents itself with new possibilities. What do you do with yourself when you can do anything you choose? That may seem like a dream come true, but is it?
I mean we are conditioned from the first day of school to get up, go to work, stand in a line, eat what you are fed, and repeat. We as a society have been trained to do this our entire life, but when you don’t have that anymore it can be troubling. I think that’s when the struggle begins. This is something I’ve learned from my own personal weight loss journey.
Not everyday is going to be amazing and your going to do great, and its going to look like life on Instagram. Some days there is going to be a battle, and that battle will be in yourself. My struggle is I’m always in a hurry. I forget to enjoy the little things a lot. I have a friend, Rick, who always enjoys the little things. No matter what is going on he finds that little something that makes him laugh. I really admire that about him.
Yesterday, I struggled with everything I still what to get done verses all things I would like to be doing in addition to the chores around the house. Needless to say I lost the battle, and at the end of the day I didn’t do a whole lot.
So what can we be doing to keep our spirits up. Turn off the news, and social media is a good start. Assign yourself a personal project. In my case having fun shooting portraits with my ridiculous hair. Move… exercise always makes me feel better. The tougher the activity usually the better you feel. At least it does for me. Finally take some time to invest in yourself. Learn something new, read a book, or spend sometime with your family.
