Today I saw a poster in a neighboring teacher's room with this quote:
"A mistake is a chance to try harder."
Someone commented on my last post that they are impressed I've stuck it out on my weight loss journey for almost a year now. Well, I must say it's because I've continued to use every mistake along the way to learn and try harder the next time. There have been plenty of mistakes, believe me (it's why I've lost 30 pounds in almost a year instead 60 or 90), but I've not let my mistakes push me to quit. I simply refuse to give up on my reaching my weight loss goals this time around. I simply keep going and try harder.
Over the course of time trying harder will always win the battle. I know it's true for me and it can be true for you too!
Have a great week everyone!
Good for you for getting up so early to exercise!!! That is what I need to get back into doing too....thanks for posting about this.
ReplyDeleteWay to get in the excercise before work!!! Have a great day at work :)
ReplyDeleteI agree, things work so much better when I get up 1/2 hour earlier to work out. If I wait till the evening, it seems life takes over and it never get's done.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your part time teaching job!
When I first started exercising I couldn't imagine getting up and getting it done before John had to leave for work. Now I can't imagine exercising in the afternoon! It's funny how things can change over time.
ReplyDeleteGreat motivational quote. You have been at this weight loss effort for a while, but you have never quit and have steadily lost weight while changing your lifestyle!
