Well its been a few days since my last post, life has been busy. It's funny how a different mindset can take hold of you even through the busy times when you are determined.
For me in the last few years, when life got busy, I got lazy with food choices and there were always a million things to do rather than exercise. This week didn't go that way, I went to the gym 4 mornings in a row (EARLY) and was surprised how much energy I felt throughout the day. Don't get me wrong, I ached for sure but had more energy and felt better about myself.
I'm not sure if it was the mind shift I had this week, or the exercise, or the healthier eating, or maybe a combination of all 3 but I had a very successful week with my business. I have signed 6 new people into my organisation which is a record for me, I would like to think it is my excitement about life at the moment.
When life gets busy I normally go to my comfort zone, my comfort food, my comfortable excuses. I am so proud that this week I didn't do that, this week I stayed strong.
I had a 5 day free trial pass for a gym this week and managed to go 4 out of the 5 days, wasn't able to make it today as hubby went fishing. I gave myself the day off to recover as I had exercised every day for the last 6 days. I have decided not to join the gym at this stage as I have some equipment at home that has been gathering dust and also have some passes left on my swim card. I will be walking with a friend at least 2-3 times a week aswell as swimming 2-3 times a week and using the equipment I have at home in between.
This week has shown me that when life gets busy I can either make excuses or I can schedule my weeks better. I can schedule coaching sessions with my team and meetings, I can schedule kids activities & play dates, so I can certainly schedule exercise into my week. I have 2 weeks till school goes back to get the routine working for me with early rises to get that exercise in before school, get my meal planning working and setting routines for the kids for mornings to help things stay on track.
When life gets busy how do you fit it all in?
