I am jazzed up.
I am not doing anything different. Not adding anything new in. Not taking anything old out.
I did, however, have a shift in thinking. Nothing awe inspiring, just plain old common sense:
"Do something is better than do nothing; my something is better than nothing; my success is based on my improvement...and "most improved" is a good thing...it means you are improving."
Walk at the mall, walk in the neighborhood, spend 5 minutes in between subjects running stairs, riding bikes, practicing Kung Fu, eating off the kid's menu, sleeping at 9pm....it is all good. It is my good because it works with my schedule, my life, my habits and hopefully, one day, it will get the weight off. In the meantime, I am improving each and every day.
When I was younger, every class I took I was the "most improved" student. I hated being the most improved...now? I want to embrace it. I didn't appreciate what the teachers were actually saying to me. I heard: not good enough; what they meant: you have come really far, keep it up!
Hehehehehe, I guess it is better late than never to figure that out!
So, yeah, I am jazzed up. Jazzed up to be me and to do things my way.
Happy Walking!
