February 17

I have 7 min and 43 seconds until my computer restarts to install updates so I’m going to try to get this done in that time period. I have been so bad about keeping up with this daily so I’m going to try to mentally recommmit to this over the next few days. It’s funny to see how excited I can be about an idea and watch the momentum just fizzle away over a period of …. 5? 6? weeks? Nutso.

Anyways, I had the laziest Sunday of my life. I did jack shit. And it was okay. I think I still made room for a lot of stuff I needed to do for school and socially so that feels like okay balance. I’m starting to see the value in one absolute lazy day, but I also am starting to feel like I need to shake up my routine because when you are on your couch for an entire Sunday watching Gangs of New York, you also have a lot of time to contemplate your life and I’m being a lil too lazy sometimes. I think part of it is procrastination. Like I know I have school work to do so I wait at home until the motivation hits. So maybe I need to work on that or just work on accepting that and hope that by accepting it I’ll actually find myself less stressed and hating myself less over this trait and just…change it.

My friend posted this quote on her ‘gram, and ya I know it’s cheesy, but it said:

“move different if you’re tired of the same outcomes.”

And I think that just sounds nice. Every day there are these little choices to make that could make all the difference, so instead of putting pressure on myself to make the big changes, I’m just going to focus on the small ones. Cleaning out the sock drawer when I want to watch TV or using Amazon Fresh to get groceries instead of Uber Eats. I can do that sometimes, for sure.

I’m at the end with 1 min and 32 seconds left. I’m pumped for today because I’m pumped for my workout and I genuinely love that fresh start feeling. Forgiving myself for my Sunday pizza and pancakes.

38 seconds left. I don’t have anything else for today. Chins up!
