I tried to be vegan and failed… numerous times.
I tried to run a half marathon without stopping and failed.
I tried going a day without nagging my husband and failed far too often.
I have tried to workout for a week straight and failed miserably.
I have tried to have another baby and have failed for almost nine years.
I have tried to write a book several times and have failed countless times.
When I slip up and fall off track I tend to wallow in self pity and defeat but NOT today!! Instead of saying I will start over AGAIN I am going to just dust myself off and get back on track *grin*
“If you slip up and get off track, forgive yourself. It’s okay to be imperfect and to make mistakes. Just dust yourself off and get back on course.”
STOP beating yourself up and do NOT allow the feeling of defeat keep you stuck in old habits and ways of thinking. Let us get up and dust ourselves off and try again!!!
What is my end goal?
For me it is healthy living and finding balance in life. I long to be a fun yet productive mom. I long to be the best wife and mom I can be… NOT perfect just the best I can be! I long to complete a half marathon in less than two and a half hours. I long to eat healthy even when I face temptation and am on vacation. I long to finish writing a book I started… anyone would be nice! I long to remember to feel LOVED every minute of everyday because I am!! I long to give grace freely to myself and others.
What is your end goal?
Might I encourage you to dust yourself off and try again. Don’t stop, don’t give up!! Keep pressing on and forgive yourself when you fall off track on your way to the finish line.
Keep moving forward one step at a time!
