Pushing Through the Temptation

I did my first session with a personal trainer tonight. It was so intense I thought I was going to throw up. I was told I needed to eat after… Does Easter candy count?!

But, let’s be real for a minute. I had someone call me today and ask “why is it that I finally made the decision to stop dating and focus on myself, and now I have these people popping up from the past trying to “talk to me?””

Well, it’s the same reason I just worked out harder than I ever have in my life to come home to Easter egg aftermath with all the best candy in the land…

Temptation.

It’s real.

It’s hard.

It’s always going to be there- at every turn. Especially when you make the choice to make a change.

What’s your goal?

Is it worth it to let ANYTHING come between you and the end result that you are seeking?

Those are the questions I have been encouraging people to ask themselves. With the number of times “temptation” has been a theme amid people reaching out this week, I’m throwing this out publicly for anyone else who needs to hear it.

If something is important to you- do not let anything stop you from achieving it. Oftentimes- WE are the very thing holding ourselves back from greatness. Healthy boundaries begin with the ones we place for ourselves.
