Sometimes I tell myself, "I can't. I just can't. I can't. I can't fucking do this shit! FACK!" Then I reread my
previous entry and trudge along. But I realized that I trudge because I am unsure about absolutely everything.
What I can't emphasize enough is determining what it is exactly that will make you happiest. Without knowing what makes you happiest and why it makes you happiest, the goal remains questionable. This will allow you to question the validity of your hard work when times are tough. It leaves room for doubt, discouragement and failure as you ask yourself, "WHY DOES THIS SUCK SO MUCH?!". If you were to know exactly what would make you happiest and why it would make you happiest, you would be much more excited or determined to get through the tough parts of life to get what you want.
If only it were easy. If only we could just *snap* our fingers and decide what will make us happiest. Personal preference and a lack of perspective can add too many nuances to these processes.
[I would also like to note that this has nothing to do with my weight loss/get strong goals. I have long identified a few goals for myself and I truly do become excited to get my butt to the gym and work towards them! I've revved up my routine and I'm going strong again :). WOOT!]
