It's Day 8. I've had 1 break so far, and that was last week. This week I get 2 breaks, and I had expected to have one of those 'break' days be Saturday because it's supposed to upwards of 95 degrees in Chicago. So that left one other day, and I thought, maybe Friday! That way I can just chill with my husband this weekend. Then client meetings got scheduled Wed (tonight) and Thursday evenings and suddenly I found myself debating with myself all day: What should my 'days off' be?
Part of my body was screaming at me to let today be a break. I've worked out 4 days in a row so far, which is probably the most in-a-row workouts I've done in a really long time. It wants a break and a good round of stretching. Then part of me argued against that side because, "it might rain tomorrow" and, "wouldn't it be better to squeeze it in today?"
I know this is a challenge, so it wouldn't be easy or without its difficulties. That said, I forgot the internal debates that go on in your head when you set your mind to something and part of your inner-self wants to sabotage you. I had been great for 7 days. Day 8: Welcome Mr. Saboteur.
So I'm going to have to figure out, after I get back from my client meeting (depending on the time), if I want to squeeze in 20 minutes or just let it be one of my days. *sigh* These are not real problems. They are just temporary challenges. ...perspective.
