Thankful Thursday (Life in General)

Today I'm thankful for life in general. I feel like these past few weeks I have been feeling sorry for myself because things haven't gone as planned or just aren't perfect at times. I often throw in the towel way too early for some things.

Prime example: Lately, if I miss one of my scheduled runs for the week, I just tell myself that my whole week of training is ruined and then I don't run all week long.

Prime example: If I've gained weight... I'll just eat anything I want to because whats a few more pounds gonna matter.

I'm not usually like this. Usually if I would miss a run then I would just do it the next day, but not lately. Or, if I've gained weight, then I work hard to get the pounds off ASAP. I've been lazy in life recently, which is unacceptable for me.

So this week I'm trying to have a more positive outlook on things and not take for granted this wonderful life I've been given. When I get in a funk it's hard to not feel sorry for myself, but I have to remember that it doesn't make anything better :)

My motto this week!
