Day 234

There is so much power in action, even the littlest steps. This morning I dragged my butt until the last minute before I went for the short run I promised myself I would go on. I even made Ellison and Adjei breakfast, which I don’t usually do for Ellison on a weekday. I was in my running clothes but again, I was not feeling it. I finally decided to go and I jogged for 11 minutes. It was probably maybe a mile. I came home and I immediately had a burst of energy and I felt so proud that I followed through with the small goal I set for the day. So for the first half of my day I was eating really healthy.
Now to my eating for the evening. Like I said, the first few meals of the day were great. Then I went to check out a few preschools and I really liked one but it was very expensive. I started to feel anxious and doubtful about the next few months. I'm acting purely on faith and that is really difficult to do. I know nothing is guaranteed but living in a financial situation where, really, there is no guarantee is really scary. I decided that all I can do is live fully with faith and keep on movin forward. So with all that said, I tried to be good for dinner and I wasn’t. I had two hotdogs and two smores. Not the worst thing I could’ve done but I have plenty of healthier options in my fridge.
Tomorrow is a new day. I will try again with my eating and I will track the full day, even if it’s painful. However, it won’t be painful because if I feel anxious or doubtful I will call people who love me. Or I will pray for someone who is in more need than me. This quote was posted at one of the preschools. Enjoy!
