Listen to Yourself

Apparently I really needed sleep yesterday. Because not only did I sleep in so much that I had to like race to get to work, so I couldn’t do my workout in the morning. But then, that night, I…last night…that night, whatever, I fell asleep literally sitting up at my kitchen table. Literally. So apparently my body was in desperate need of sleep. Which I find strange, cause I haven’t not been sleeping. So, I, apparently I’m just running myself down. I don’t know. But it brings up a really important point. I had told my online fitness group that I was gonna get my workout in last night and I was gonna take a picture and I was gonna prove it to them. So here’s why you didn’t see a picture. But, I think, it’s very important to listen to what your body’s telling you. Clearly I needed sleep. Which is fine. Took a day off, it’s fine. However, it’s important not to let that turn into a new excuse. Umm, for me this is super important because I will then use those excuses to then derail everything that I’m working toward. So…today, got up, did my workout. TA DA! And, uh, moving on. So, that’s a huge success for me to say “ok, I needed a break yesterday, that’s fine. Jump back into it today, we’re ready to go.” So, wanted to share that little tidbit with ya. Listen to yourselves, let your bodies relax when you need to, let your minds relax when you need to, take breaks when you need to. But don’t give in to that. Make sure that you…recover and keep going and keep moving and keep fighting, everyday. It’s…life is a struggle, but we’re in it together. Umm…so, yeah, that’s, that’s what I’ve got for today. Have a good week everybody.
