A new motto

I really like this: "in whatever you do, always push it a little farther than you think you can, and you'll succeed." So today at Curves I did a little more than one circuit and used less help from the staff. I'm totally exhausted because of that plus the first visit at the new physical therapy place lasted exactly until it was time to go to Curves. That was a bit much.

But seeing this progress is so energizing and addicting. I keep wanting to go to see what more I can do. I didn't expect to see progress for months. I thought it would take ages. So this is such an amazing and wonderful surprise that I really do find it addicting. It's good to have a positive addiction!

Now, I am taping my new motto onto my desk to remind me to keep pushing. Thanks, R!

I love that you are already seeing progress - that's so fabulous! I think once you put your mind to change and grow, your body adjusts almost immediately. Remember: your body does what your MIND tells it to do. And YOU control your mind... not the other way around!!!! If you tell your mind to tell your body to heal, it will. Because when you tell your mind something it means that you believe you can accomplish it. And you know you can. There are going to be days that you don't wanna, don't think you can - I hope you go back and read your own posting here!

I LOVE YOU!!!
Love, Peanut
(And PS - You are an AMAZING role model! It's one thing to watch Gurmukh who has been living this healthy lifestyle for decades, but it's quite another to watch you do make incredible brave and miraculous commitment to yourself. It reminds me daily of my own commitments to myself. Even right now, I just taught a 7 am class and I don't have to work until noon. I really want to go home and take a nap, but I made a commitment to myself and to my teacher to take the 9 am class, so here I sit - waiting for it to start!)
