BE STRONGER THAN YOUR EXCUSES.

i am at a place in my life where i'm sick of my own excuses. this is a good thing. this is a great thing. cause when you get fed up and sick and tired of going around the same ol' mountain (thanks, Heather Lindsey <3 ) then that's usually when it's (past due) time to GET UP & do something about it. it's time to work. it's no secret that the gym is my happy place.. but sometimes (often times) i find myself running /escaping there to avoid doing the things i know i need to be doing. the things God has called me to do because He wants His plan for my life to be executed properly. i have about 2 kabillion hopes, plans, and dreams for my blog, my family, our fitness companies & endeavors, etc. etc. etc........ lest i forget that shoes don't walk by themselves. things don't happen unless you get up make them happen. pray fervently (James 5:16) but don't just sit there....move. we (yep, YOU and i) have so much work to do!!! God has plans and a purpose for everyone.

committing to a 14 week-long bikini competition training? sure, let's do it. committing to hit the gym 6-7 days a week (yes, even at 5:30am)? done. committing to eating low-no processed foods and an overall clean diet daily? been there, done that, still doing it. however, i want to apply and execute the same kind of commitment to many other areas of my life.... and i'm not. cause i'm scared. my mind often overflows with, "what if" this and "what if" that.... but how long will i stand in my own way and let this go on? will i wake up at age 50 with regret after regret after regret? will i half do my tasks, never giving 100% thus never truly seeing the full, ripest fruits of my labor? i have so many questions. too many. but i'm tired. tired of hearing my own voice rambling away in my head. i'm ready to start doing.
