I would like to congratulate you. You did amazing!! Seriously though. Want to know what you did?

I would like to congratulate you

For doing something you always wanted to do...

Once.

Anyone can do it once.

I can easily order a healthy meal once.

I could also get a workout in once.

I recently read a book once.

Pretty easy.

But easy does not get results.

The best do it consistently.

But most can't do it.

Because they want instant gratification.

They want to see the results...right now.

Heck, I do too!

And if the results are not immediately visible,

They give up.

The idea of waiting weeks, months, or even years to see results (or potential of results) can feel daunting.

It is also scary to think your efforts may all go to waste.

This is another reminder to enjoy the journey and to understand your "why."

When the healthy meal becomes part of your lifestyle,

And when the workouts become a non-negotiable,

That is when you truly embraced these boring moments.

Trust the process.

I am no genius.

But I know my "why" and I know the journey is even more important than the end results.

Have fun with the boring.

You are not here to impress others.

Impress your future self.

Make them damn proud.

​

You got this,
