Today was another struggle getting out of bed. I’ve had my reminders to be in bed by 8:15pm, but once I get there I don’t fall asleep right away. When I did, my workout came together on a good end note. My muscles get warm, but haven’t been sore or tight. My focus has been on letting myself break through and accept the sweat, and as soon as it lets loose it’s like I’m under a shower. Gross, but necessary. And it makes it all that more satisfying afterwards to see my work strewn over the mat like a polluck. It is my daily masterpiece. I’m rewarded with a recovery drink and a clean shower. There is no better feeling than a great shower, and starting your day off having accomplished something. Even if everything else goes to crap today, I’ll still have this accomplishment. The scale is naturally going in the right direction, but that’s not my aim at the moment. I’m still focused on the habit of the activity, and to that I’m feeling pretty good.
