Stop Procrastinating and Do It.

OK, so I have been waiting until the perfect time to post my first blog. I came up with lots of reasons why I could not do it. The site did not look professional, the colours were clashing, I was not sure what I was doing, the time was not right, blah, blah, blah… and the list goes on. This is often how my planning goes when faced with a task, an example of which is my recent plan to achieve my fitness goals. My plan was to get fit but only when I am fit and lean will I get a personal trainer. *scratches head and looks puzzled* To start doing Yoga I need to be more flexible, is another. 🤔

As with lots of things in my life, I just find reasons why I should not be making decisions, changing things or starting something new, after all, who am I kidding? I don’t expect its ever going to happen anyway. I ask myself why anyone would want to read the crazy random thoughts knocking about in my head? But, there is still a little voice in there that says, you never know! If not, who cares!? Thankfully I myself quite enjoy writing and reading my own crazy random thoughts. In fact, sometimes I read things I have written and I feel they are so good, I wonder if I did actually write them myself (Obviously negative self talk is something I need to eradicate, but I will do that when I am a slim, fit and super successful blogger, ha ha, Only Joking!)

Over the last few weeks, I seem to have had a surge of inspiration and, dare I say, inner confidence. My Spring has slightly sprung, well a drip has turned to a trickle, but I do anticipate a steady flow leading to sporadic floods in the near future (and I am not referring to my bladder) Psshhhhh! 😳

It occurred to me that I have nothing to lose. I am in a transitional phase in my life and can feel the great things to come. My new found confidence and self love is growing. I fully understand how important it is for me to be kinder to myself and stop making excuses for why something won’t work. I know now I must do the things that make me happy and stay clear of the things that don’t. If things turn out different than planned, it’s not a problem as long as I gave it a good go and enjoyed the process. Its not the destination but the journey that counts!
