My mind is all jumbled and spinning. I'm trying to get my thoughts together right now so this will most likely be just a rambling mess, but here goes...
Over the past couple of months I have watched some of my facebook friends, co-workers, and very close friends become some of the most inspiring men and women I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Something in the air in 2013 has given people some mad motivation. Whether it's striving to become a better person through fitness and weight loss, weeding out the negative in their lives and getting with the positive, simply inspiring others, or sometimes all of the above these people are impressing the hell outta me! I'm a pretty stubborn person, so I don't normally just give in and conform, even if it is to a good thing. I don't like to be judged by anyone, especially myself. They say we are our own worst critics. I fear failure. I feel people seeing me fail. I don't want to be one of those people, as I have been in the past, posting about how I just got a fabulous work-out at the gym and then a couple months down the road all of a sudden those posts stop. And so do the gym sessions...and bring on the ice cream, baby! I also don't want to be left in the dust either. Believe it or not, somewhere in this warped, crazy brain of mine I am somewhat of a fierce competitor. I'm just really quiet about it.
So you're not going to see me posting about how many reps I did or this amazing vegan diet I've adapted to. I'm going to continue to post crabby, screw-the-world statuses when I'm pissed off about something. I'm going to keep up with the stupid, BFF-crazy-nonsense-drunk posts on Friday nights. I'm not giving up my lazy-laying-on-the-couch-drinking-a-Natty nights. If I did, then I just wouldn't be "me". But just know...I'm watching you people. And you're inspiring the hell out of me. :)
Good luck! I like watching the inspiring people too. Tho some days it's all I can do to just put my workout clothes on (like today) and that's as far as I get.
