Well last night I ended up getting locked outside the house and spent the night sleeping in an uncomfortable car. I did not realize the front door would lock behind me and so that ended up being my night of stiff necks and sleeping limbs.
Stupid story... but I shared it to show that nothing in life goes smoothly even when it comes down to my night, as ridiculous as it sounds these mishaps we face constantly. We will come across obstacles, challenges, mishaps that we would much rather not face and some of us may overcome them with support and guidance from others, others may plummet themselves into the ground with the feeling that it is impossible. It is natural to handle situations differently but there comes a point when obstacles are stepping stones, fears are challenges and mishaps are the man aboves way of trying to get a good laugh, watching how you surpass them. (But believe what you want)
Don't allow your fears to prevent you from trying, don't allow obstacles to prevent you from climbing over them and don't allow yourself to fall into a routine without being able to adjust to life's changes.
On that note: Stefanie this is for you...today I told Stefanie that after this week of workouts she will be doing one week alone, without me being a pain in her ass. Right away she panicked. I am trying to show her that she is her own obstacle, success, failure, support, motivation, dedication...she has it in herself. I can say all I want and try to push her down the stairs as many times as I can so she can run back up but the only reason she is coming back up is because she wants this way more then anyone else. No one may understand her drive, her motivation, her determination but she has it in her to keep going and when I no longer train her, I want the thought in my mind to be, she'll be fine and I want her to see for herself that she can and will maintain the weight she has lost and will continue to push even if the rest of the world feels she can't.
