This picture cracked me up simply because I've said this all day in a sarcastic manner. I'll tell you what, I was tested and pushed to my limits mentally all day long. I don't have tough days to the point of tears out of frustration very often, but today marks the books for sure!
Tough days do get placed in our laps sometimes whether we ask for it or not, but everything's gonna be super duper. Why? Because in 1 hour I get to leave and go do something I enjoy. I get to go help someone get healthier and then after that I get to make myself healthier. PLUS, everything really is gonna be super duper at some point. Can't have a rainbow without a little rain, right?
In the midst of my crappy day, I had a confirmation of an idea that I've been toying with for awhile now. I keep telling myself to go back to school. I've gone back and forth about it, but never wanted to commit because I really didn't know what I WANTED to go back for, but I know I need to if I want to be truly happy. So, with that said, I have made the next decision and that is that I want to go back for something nutrition/fitness related. The next wonderful decision is to decide where to enroll at and what part of that area I want to dive into as my focus. I've had a few ideas thrown at me, so hopefully this weekend I can take the time and research it :)
Now don't get me wrong. I do enjoy my corporate job 97% of the time, but I feel like I could do so much more for the world besides sitting behind a desk and listening to people complain 8 hours a day 5 days a week. That's why I LOVE my personal training job. It's in person and it's helping someone. While some might still complain, it's a different kind of complaining. It's the type of complaining that can be turned around if given the right motivation. My corporate job just doesn't allow me to do that. I'm thankful for my job, but I like to be real and speak from my own experiences and inspire others whenever possible.
Now for my tip/point for the day. Don't let people's lack of planning constitute an emergency on your end. That has been my entire day and I let it get the best of me on more than one occasion. Shit does, in fact, happen. Make sure you step back and see the bigger picture before losing that said shit. The bigger picture will make you breathe a little bit and when you can accept the bigger picture it makes it a lot easier to believe that things are gonna be super duper at the end of the day. For me, it was stepping back and realizing the bigger picture was to redirect my energy to something positive...school and my greater need to expand my knowledge so that I could do what I love. Be the super duper part of your day. Don't let someone else's BS ruin it :)
