Perhaps, this should be titled “Excuse Up.”
We have made the decision including:
Invested in a trendy piece of exercise equipment,
Joined a popular gym,
Signed up for Zoomba, yoga, rumba, salsa or any other class that sparked our attention,
Bought all the must have apparel that insures “the” total look, and
Talked the talk with our BFF’S , LTF’S, and our SM’S.
We need to ask ourselves:
Are we ready for this commitment?
Are we prepared for ALL the mundane excuses that WILL and DO stop us?
What IS our payback if we make and keep our commitment?
On a scale of one to ten, How important is this commitment to ourselves?
When are we going to look in the mirror and say:
“You really, really, count…. and
“I can, I can, I can, I will, I will, I will, I am, I am, I am?”
Excuses, are always in our lives such as:
Cannot start today, this day ends in “Y”,
Cannot start tomorrow, overbooked,
Cannot start next week, friend/relatives arriving,
And on, and on and on….
A dear friend has these words of wisdom on her 6-burner top of the line cook stove:
“Dinner, take it or leave it”.
“Exercise, Take It or Leave It”
“Who rules, your nambie/pambie excuses, or YOU?”
