Motivation Monday

Good Morning my pretties!

I am feeling that my motivation is still going strong. It has taken me a very long time to get here and I am seriously enjoying it. I am finally looking forward to my workouts, I am unconsciously choosing healthier foods over the unhealthy foods and I am putting in a lot of hours to help better my company. Can I also mention, I have been blogging a little more frequently?! Hell ya! 

For today's Motivation Monday, I want you to take a minute and close your eyes. Breathe deeply and tell yourself that you love yourself. That everything is fine, you're doing your best and that is all that matters. Now, take a look at how your week is looking and schedule in your "need to's". I find that when I am looking for motivation if I fill up my calendar with all the things I need to do and when to do them by, I will actually get them done. Now don't go overboard and fill it up with every single detail, you're going to just overwhelm yourself and literally say "F* it" so, start with your small "need to's" and work your way up! 

I find that deadlines are important. As someone who since school (which is almost 5 years ago, SAY WHAT?!!!) hasn't really had a schedule I have found that setting deadlines helps me to not procrastinate. If a deadline is set and I don't reach it, I will give myself a mini punishment lol for example: no netflix for two nights, no alcohol for a weekend, no coffee for a day etc. I will just take away the things I enjoy most for a few days just so that I remember to be productive. 

 I am my own teacher. I truly believe that if you want to be successful you need to work for it. Even when you don't feel like doing it, DO IT. Push yourself to do better, to BE better. Only YOU can make those changes.

It takes time, a lot of practice and patience. But I truly believe in the "fake it till you make it" philosophy. If you pretend like you've got your shit together, you'll eventually have it together. 

Have a great week!
