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?

I think everything said made a ton of sense. But, think on this, suppose you added
a little information? I mean, I don't wish to tell you how to run your blog, however what
if you added a title that grabbed a person's attention? I mean Add new comment | Melanin Mom Chronicles is kinda
plain. You could glance at Yahoo's home page and note how they create article titles to grab viewers interested.
You might try adding a video or a picture or two to get
people interested about everything've written. Just my opinion, it could make
your blog a little bit <a href="https://www.3htask.com/profile/number1reading/">learn more</a> interesting.

Hello, There's no doubt that your site may be having browser compatibility problems.

When I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however, when opening in IE, it's got some overlapping issues.
I simply wanted to give you a quick heads up! Aside from that, great website!

Its such as you read my thoughts! You seem to understand a lot about this, such as you
wrote the e book in it or something. I think
that you simply could do with a few percent to power the message home
a little bit, but instead of that, that is great blog.
An excellent read. I'll certainly be back.

Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I
found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said
"You can hear the ocean if you put <a href="https://yabakri.com/companies/maragni/">look at this site for more
info</a> to your ear." She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about
this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you could do
with a few pics to drive the message home a bit, but other than that, this is magnificent blog.
A fantastic read. I'll definitely be back.

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is needed to get
set up? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% certain. Any recommendations or advice
would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks

Hello! I know this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask.
Does running a well-established website like yours take a massive amount work?
I am completely new to writing a blog however I do write
in my diary on a daily basis. I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my personal experience and thoughts online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of suggestions or
tips for brand new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!
