Evelyn says persistence is the key, well, so here I am...persisting...failing, coming back the next day to say I failed, make new promises, and try again...to only fail again, and record it, resolve to do better, and try again...and so on and so forth.
Today I read on a fortune cookie that the quickest way to glory is to be what you wish to be thought to be. In my case, what comes to mind are: Strong, Determined, Woman of my word, and In charge of my actions--not be at the mercy of feelings & circumstances Athletic mindset and attitude and, light and free-spirited!
Keeping my word is really important to me and this daily battle of giving in and giving up on upholding my word is taking away my power and self-worth and full self-expression.
I just have to remember that no food is special enough or tempting enough to replace this sweet feeling of power from being a strong person of their word. And as hard and painful the idea of working out is, I gotta stick to a schedule.
So tomorrow, no matter what, I gotta go on that hike in the evening. It'll be fun and energizing.
