Think Happy Thoughts

By the time I reach the close of my work and workout week, I’m literally tired.  Both mentally and physically.  It’s during these moments when weakness likes to creep in and attempt to take up residence.  Weakness wants you to stray from your plan.

In my opinion, being consistent and disciplined is probably harder than doing the actual work.  Once the habit is developed and a plan put in place, it is kind of like kicking ignorance to the curb.   You simply can’t go back to the old ways, unless of course you just give up on yourself.  This morning for example, I really wanted to sleep in.  I didn’t. 

I’m glad I didn’t because as I drove to work at 7:31am this morning the thought crossed my mind that my workout is done and I have showered and I am on my way to work, most people are just getting up.   That my friends is a happy thought.

Those happy thoughts make this journey possible.   This past weekend, this little guy slammed himself into our large window and knocked himself silly.   I walked outside and there he lay on the deck all dazed and confused.  Like the good nurturer that I am, I gently picked him up and rubbed him just a tad as he shivered.  I picked up a chair cushion and put the little hummer on the cushion and then put both on the table.  Not once did I think he wouldn’t snap out of his confusion.  Sure enough an hour later he flew off and on to business.  When life knocks you silly, press on!

    Nice catch! Sometimes all of us crash into a heap, its how we reflect and press on that makes the difference. A nice rub helps as well. 😉
