Sadness

Today, I'm posting about finding happiness.

And no, I'm not going to start every post that way. I'm annoyed by it, but for this message I feel its necessary.


On my way to school this morning, Jason Mraz- I'm Yours started blaring through my speakers.

It really got me thinking about the road to happiness.

Making the best out of a situation.

Don't hesitate. Let love in. No need to complicate.

Open up your plans and damn you're free.




I've spent a lot of time being lazy. Making excuses. Hiding from my problems.

So instead of opting for the easy way out, I'm going to opt for change.

In my way of thinking.
In my approach to difficult situations.
In making dark thoughts brighter.

Here is one of my favorite quotes by Steve Jobs:

"When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something."

I have had way too many "no's" recently, so I am determined to make a change.

For a start, I'm going to do Momma Crossfit's 30 Day Challenge (http://mommacrossfitter.blogspot.com/2013/05/30-day-at-home-crossfit-challenge.html) since body image and self esteem is a huge issue for me. Huge. Word play. Whatev. I've dealt with many hardships in my love for crossfit, I'll tell ya about it one day.



I just love this.


I'm also going to listen to happier music. No more gloomy sad country songs.


And I'm convinced that by the time school is over I'll have a DVT if I don't get off my ass.


Hopefully everyday I'll have a positive change and a WOD along with it.



Cheers to change, friends.
