Taking a quick little brain break from the day. Get yo reading glasses on π€
Let's just talk about the gym for a quick sec. π
π¬ Today was the first day back in the gym since that germ shut everything down. I use to go 5 days a week and did the things. That was over 3 years ago. Since then, I forgot what it felt like to start again. I should have taken a before picture because damn I was scared as s**t to go. I was nervous to unlock the door, I was nervous to walk into the space, I was nervous about not being able to do a particular set because someone else might have been using the equipment. Then, of course, that would have totally thrown me off, but! I still did it. I had to tell myself what I tell my kids. β¨οΈSometimes we just have to do it scared.β¨οΈ So I did it, I unlocked the door, no problem, walked into the room and saw the most loving faces, and I did all my sets. If I hadn't mustered up the courage to do it scared, I wouldn't have felt the feeling of being able to take on the world when I was done.
So, if you're at a point where you want to do something but it feels uncomfortable and scary. Just know that the stories, worries, and anxieties that play in your head are just stories. It's the body trying to protect you, which thank you, but "I got this". Do it scared. The feelings of accomplishment afterward are so worth it.
You can do the things that your brain/ego is trying to stop you from doing. You're already doing amazing π
Big Friday love! πβ¨οΈππΌ
