Worth it Wednesday

Do you

Topic: Taking Personal Responsibility

So…there’s not product review this week. I have been wrapping my mind around getting back into the school routine this week and I realized I have a lot more work today. I honestly don’t enjoy waking up early anymore and it’s something that negatively impacts my daily output as far as I’m concerned. But (so I can get back on topic), I’ve realized that while there’s so many areas of my life that I’ve become consistent there are still plenty that are inconsistent. This is how the road got led back to personal responsibility. Right now I’m in a fragile state of not being as healthy as I want and should be, but far from where I started yet still not seeing the results I want from my hard work. 

For anyone that knows me or has been following me, I’ve been on a consistent weight loss journey for about 2 years. I do workouts nearly everyday and I have been more conscious of my daily eating habits. Naturally, this has yielded weight loss results. The flip side is that my body likes to fight me. I have no idea why. I have had so many tests run on me (I know I need to go back to the doctor because aside from my OB-GYN it’s been years), but there’s nothing that indicates there should be a problem. I get that aging also impacts this, but I feel like I’m still in the age group that it shouldn’t have this great of an impact. This is where personal responsibility hit me square in the face. The number 1 rule when beginning weight loss is going to the doctor to ensure everything is on the up and up. Your regimen should be tailored around those results. I know this and yet I have failed to follow sound advice. Because I haven’t gone to the doctor I don’t get as frustrated when my body goes wonky on me even though I’m doing the work. Another area that I struggle with is meal prep. Back in the day, I had no problems at all with knowing what meals I would be eating and putting myself into position to have that. Now…I just can’t. For a while I completely fell of the wagon, but now I’m doing much better with being mindful of what’s going into my body so that it can produce the best results. Of course this is only one portion of my life that this applies.

This biggest area currently is what I would consider my lack of results. I feel like I should be further in life than I currently am. Jokingly I say things about being sponsored, but please believe that apart of my goals is to get paid to do this. I’m consistent now because this really is a space for me to release and be me, but I want to make a contribution financially to my family without sacrificing time and being on someone else’s schedule. Comparison is the killer of self esteem to most, but I use it as a means for “research”. There are so many women doing what I want to do (and being paid for it) and the one thing I have to admit to myself is that I’m not putting in the work required to get the results. It’s hard to admit to myself often and yet the more I can be honest the more likely I will finally get into position to start. I have to be more interactive on social media (this is really one of my biggest downfalls….It’s so time consuming) as well as being making videos. I said when virtual school started I was going to get myself together and that’s exactly what I’m going to do. This is week 1 and we’ve had some minor issues, but I’m currently planning on how to arrange my space to get the best videos and will be using what I currently have on hand versus waiting until I get “the perfect” setup. If I don’t have the success I want…it’s on me! I know I’m not the only person that struggles here so I want to say it out loud so you know you’re not alone!

Is it Worth it: YES….doing the work always yields results. I won’t lie and say it will always be the ones you want, but something is always more than nothing.

Do you have something you’re currently not taking personal responsibility that you need to work on?

The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone and tested
to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop,
just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and
she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to
share it with someone!

Hi this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to
manually code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience.

Any help would be enormously appreciated!

Hi there, I believe your web site may be having web browser compatibility
issues. Whenever I take a look at your web
site in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in IE, it has
some overlapping issues. I just wanted to provide you with a quick
heads up! Aside from that, wonderful blog!

Please let me know if you're looking for a article writer for your weblog.
You have some really great articles and I think I would be
a good asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off, I'd absolutely love to write
some material for your blog in exchange for a link back to mine.
Please send me an email if interested. Kudos!

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems
as though you relied on the video to make your point.

You clearly know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting
videos to your site when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?

Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using?
I'm looking to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a tough time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.

The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and
I'm looking for something unique.
P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

Have a look at my web blog ... 호치민가라오케

This design is incredible! You definitely
know how to keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved
to start my own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Excellent job.
I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you
presented it. Too cool!

Can I simply say what a comfort to uncover somebody
that really understands what they are discussing on the net.
You certainly understand how to bring an issue to light and
make it important. A lot more people need to read this and understand this side of your story.
I was surprised you aren't more popular because you most
certainly possess the gift.

I absolutely love your blog and find nearly all of your post's to be exactly I'm looking
for. Does one offer guest writers to write content
for yourself? I wouldn't mind composing a post or
elaborating on a number of the subjects you write regarding
here. Again, awesome web site!

Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The
words in your post seem to be running off the
screen in Firefox. I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to
do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
The style and design look great though! Hope you get the issue
fixed soon. Cheers
