Normally I would scoff at celebrating a one week anniversary - I mean, really, what is a week? Yet, I recognize that I have to keep myself excited about going and recognize the little things that happen along the way of my journey.
I tend to focus so much on what the end of a goal will look like that I forget to enjoy the process. As a result, I sometimes never reach the goal!
Or, I am too focused on the beginning of a project and am never able to see the progress, which also results (sometimes) in failing to reach the goal.
I have spent one week walking daily (except on Sunday) for 30 minutes. I have walked outside in the cold, I have walked in a store, I have walked in a mall and I have walked with children in tow. Pretty darn good for me!
Looking back it seems a piece of cake; but when I started last week it seemed a daunting task. Looking to a year or 6 months or month from now seems daunting, but focusing on tomorrow...that seems doable. One day at a time and one week at a time and I might, just might complete my year of walking (here's hoping)!
Happy 1 Week Anniversary to Me!
