Make time for things of importance.
I've only recently gotten back into my 5/6 day workout schedule with each day consisting of usually 2 hours. I guess with all the stress in my life I've finally been able to replace how happy exercise made me and how I used it as an escape from reality. Entering the gym, you should leave all hard feelings and daly stresses at the door. Your workout should solely be about improving and feel fabulous about it. I went in early this morning so I could get on with my day, I also broke my leg press PR today.
I coordinated a workout plan/ circuit today with a friend who is very new to the gym. She left with shaky legs and I left even more than I was when I came in. And with today's success I feel like maybe in future I'll be able to teach group fitness. I really do enjoy it, I think I'll teach body step. I absolutely love bodycombat but it isn't so popular in brisbane so maybe I'll do BodyStep since I hate BodyPump and I love Attack but can't teach it. BodyBalance is also somewhere along the track, it's so rejuvenating.
Today has also taught me to appreciate the small things in life. A friend that I rarely speak to and met at the gym randomly msg'd me wishing me a merry Christmas and I never even speak to her, it was so out of the blue that it just made me smile. Small gesture but its so lovely!
Another example would be at work tonight, a new customer came in to make an order, i explains the whole thing and all, it went well. When I brought her meal out to her she was absolutely lovely and so friendly and then when they departed, her daughter was like oh mummy she's so nice!! And then her mum responded with yes honey I know, she's absolutely lovely. Small things like that can just turn around a gloomy day.
