I’ve missed two days of training because of lack of planning. I could sit here and say that it was because I had to deal with friends emergencies but in reality I would be lying. The emergencies did not happen until later in the day and I could have worked around them.
So to really get this training done I’m going to have to do my walking first thing in the morning. I would train right before I take a shower and head off to bed but our neighborhood isn’t the greatest and it’s not well lighted at night. I also think that the barking dogs would drive everyone in the neighborhood crazy.
The topic of planning and letting things get in the way of goals really racks my marbles. It amazes me on how much energy I put into other things but I easily push my personal goals and health to the backburner of life. Is society training us this way?
I can look around my apartment and find eight other things that I need to do. It’s really easy to say “Oh I’ll train tomorrow” and go off and do those other eight things. Let’s see there are dishes in the kitchen, laundry to be put away, a bathroom to be cleaned, blog posts that need to be written, meals to be made, and time to be spent with a loving husband.
O.K. enough of that let me get off this computer, get my shoes on and get to walking.
