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?

Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment
(it was extremely long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I wrote and
say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog
blogger but I'm still new to the whole thing.
Do you have any suggestions <a href="https://timkoding.com/author/defeated1994/?author_downloads=true">look at this site for more info</a> beginner blog writers?

I'd really appreciate it.

I believe what you composed made a ton of sense. But, think about this,
what if you wrote a catchier title? I am not suggesting your information isn't good.,
but suppose you added a title that makes people want more?

I mean Add new comment | Melanin Mom Chronicles is a little
boring. You should glance at Yahoo's home page and watch how they write post headlines to grab people to open the links.
You might add a video or a picture or two to grab readers excited about everything've got to say.
Just my opinion, it might bring your blog a little bit more interesting.

Wonderful blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers?
I'm hoping to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
Would you suggest starting with a free platform like Wordpress or
go for a paid option? There are so many choices find out more

Any suggestions? Thank you!

Good day! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from an established blog.
Is it tough to set up your own blog? I'm not very techincal but
I can figure things out pretty fast. I'm thinking about setting up my own but I'm not sure where to begin. Do you
have any points or suggestions? Appreciate it

You really make it appear really easy along with your presentation but I to find this matter to
be actually one thing which I believe I might by no means understand.
It kind of feels too complex and extremely broad for me. I am having a look ahead on your subsequent submit, I'll try
to get the hang of it!
