Wonders of a Dreamer

Alright,

Here it is folks. Some of you may know the deeper drive behind this new mentality on being fit. But, for everyone else I'll give you a graze across the top. I have always been slightly competitive and am never satisfied with sitting in one place. Rather then expressing it as a "greener pastures" life style, I prefer to believe in my 'antsiness' as a need to challenge myself.

My moto for the last few years has really been: "Go big or Go Home" 

Though I do not struggle with anything that is life threatening, I have an immense amount of stress in my life. Compartmentalizing has been a frequent solvent, making it easier to deal with stress so that I can still be successful. Another tactic I have developed is exercise. I am already petite yes... but my motivation to workout has nothing to do with my size, or wanting to "lose" weight. Instead it helps me to feel STRONG.

Many know me as the off-wall-kooky personality that can make conversation with a fence post, could power a town with my 8 am energy and enthusiasm, and generally happy person. Well, this is true. But I am HUMAN, I promise! I STRUGGLE and yes, with a personality like mine, I still suffer from insecurities.


So, to combat the insecurities and stress, I simply flip the table and focus my energy toward STRENGTH. Also, back to my 'competitive' tendencies... I am simply in competition with myself. I set a new goal, be it mental, educational, career oriented, or physical, focus my energy and GO!




My new Workout challenge, to workout for a month, everyday straight... is my next hill to climb.




I will be posting throughout the process and hope you all enjoy the journey with me and who knows... many some of you will take on the challenge with me :0)




Here is an article of a women who realized the unhappiness in her life and turned to exercise and SUCCEEDED!
