So, my hubs came home tonight with some tough news about my blog...He said it was "presumptious". We talked for a bit about why I'm blogging and after my explanation, he prompted me to write this "addendum" to my daily posting.
I am blogging because I need help staying motivated. Intrinsic motivation has NEVER been my strong suit and I need ALL THE HELP I CAN GET sticking with this goal. Countless goals have slipped through my lazy fingers and I just want to finish this! As I write this I feel sad that I have to say that I am lazy, but this is my opportunity to move past the feeling of complacency that I have felt in my life in the last 10 years and FINISH SOMETHING that doesn't come easy. I want to be proud and myself and blogging about the small goals that I reach keeps me extremely motivated to continue. and btw....I am proud of me......so far!
And that's the "rest of the story".

I'm proud of you too! No pressure, but I'm every bit as ADD as you are - so I'm looking to you for motivation in my half finished world of projects. ;) Good luck! I know you can do it!!
ReplyDeleteRUN MELISSA, RUN!!!
I also started jogging last year and loved it. I stopped when the time changed because it was too dark and I love jogging outside even though we do have a teadmill. I want to get started back and your blog is great motivation for me. I can't run without my ipod and some good Christian music like Natalie Grant and Merideth Andrews. Keep up the good work!!! God Bless
