I'm working on being consistent with my fitness regardless of what is happening in my life.  For me, the slightest emotional setback makes it hard to focus at the gym, and feel as strong and motivated as I need to be.  It's so easy to not feel 100 percent, and to stay home and avoid trying to power through it.  Right now I'm working on having consistency in my moods, and learning to drop the things that other people (usually people who have an important role in my life) say.  For me, it is one of those things that is so much easier said than done.  

It's really difficult to become better and stonger and live the kind of life that I truly want to lead, that is right on every single level (not only right where you see it) when I am letting in the crtisism and the compliments, letting in the judgement.  Maybe we don't all have total control of everything that happens in our lives, but we have control to a point, and can decide who we let in, and who we don't.  I always tend to see the positive with people, and sometimes keep them in my life when they are not bringing anything that I need, and maybe even sapping some precious creativity and positive energy.

I'm doing a bit of a spring cleaning, if I don't do it for myself, who will?

Let's be realistic, what do you do when you are having a bad day?  When I do, I usually do my best to finish what I must, but sometimes I put my workout off to the next day when I "feel Better" or I let my nutrition slide for the day because I have a pity party.  I'm challenging myself (and I would love it if you would join me) to living my bad days just like I would my good days.  To taking pride in getting my workouts done (regardless) and eating the way that my body deserves to be nourished.  Life isn't just about living on the good days.  If you skip the bad days, and let them beat you down, you lose even more.  I'm going to hold my ground, and not be the one to cheat myself out of what I really want.
