Trying To Figure It All Out
Filed under Confession,Journal,Quotes by admin at 5:28 am on Jul 02 2008
The last few days I have been doing a lot of soul searching. I can frustrated with myself and the bouncing around I have been doing the last few months. It seems like I can do so well and then I struggle. This is no secret. I have been brutally honest in my blog. Sometimes it is painful to be so honest.
I read the best statement that started to make things click……
Rather than aiming for being perfect, just aim to be little bit better today than you were yesterday.
Hmm. I think I set myself up for failure too many times. I want perfection in many areas of my life just not eating, weight loss, exercise. Is perfection too much to expect of myself. Definitely. SO why do I do it?
I wish I knew why I did it. But I have identified what I am doing. So now I have to get in a better groove. A place where I don’t do so well for a week. Journal everything and make perfect choices to the other extreme where I don’t do well and really struggle.
So starting today, I am just going to do better than I did yesterday. That is all I am asking of myself. We will see how this goes.
OK. I am signing off. Being so transparent is hard. But I want others to see that you can keep plugging along even when it gets hard. Even when you don’t want to make the right choices. It is possible. I will not go back to the way that I was. Never. I was miserable. Fat is not where I want to ever go again.
