Hmmm, I think I've said this before...

We all know I go through my phases...

Phases on fashion, phases on food, phases on boys, and phases on fitness. Well folks, I'm on a kick again. Except this time, I am REALLY trying not to make it a kick! I am trying to be better, trying to push myself, and trying to keep myself more motivated to be a healthier person!

I just got in from running...yes, I am currently sweating on my keyboard....and it was the BEST workout I've had so far. It was not the best because of my total distance, my total time, nor was it my awesome mix I created in my iTunes. It was the best because I did not stop, I did not give up, and I never said no. At every glance up I kept telling myself, "Just make it to the next stop sign." Before you knew it, the stop sign came, the stop sign went, and I was still running. There were many moments where I wanted to stop because I felt like that was all I had, but something in me was different. It wasn't about going to the next stop sign, but it was about proving to myself that I was better than I thought.

You have these moments in workouts and in life, where you just have to prove to yourself how good you really are. We spend so much time beating ourselves up saying how we aren't good enough, when in fact we are. It's just a matter of allowing ourselves to show it, and most of all, know it.

Hopefully my "kick" stays with me, and continues to kick my butt into becoming a better person.
