We all do it. Change is scary! We get stuck in a rut, pattern, comfort zone and even when our hearts are whispering, "this is the wrong path" - we ignore that little voice. Ignoring your hearts voice takes A LOT of energy. I think it takes more energy to ignore that little voice inside of you than to just listen. When you ignore it you become depressed, turn to things your shouldn't for comfort and all around get stuck in a bad place.
It is hard to close a chapter of your life and start a new one. It is necessary though in life to accept and even initiate change. Change is good. New is good. Different is good. Sometimes the world has a million gifts waiting for you and she just needs you to move your ass out of your current situation so she can send them to you.
We all know this is true. You go somewhere new, try something different, take a new route to an old place and things change. There is a shift. Suddenly the world has an opportunity to bring new people and new ideas into your path. This is healthy and necessary for moving forward. If you are not moving forward, then you are stuck and stuck is not good.
How does this relate to exercise? I am not sure it directly does relate, but it is a piece of total health and wellness. Truly committing to exercise and health only can be achieved when you are balanced and your mind is healthy. We are all a circle that requires constant nourishment and attention. If one part of the circle is broken, then the other parts suffer. Loving yourself enough to treat your body well is a big part of the circle. If you love yourself enough to treat your body well, then chances are that eventually you will start listening to the voice inside of you. As your confidence increases - the voice gets louder and your fears get smaller. Ultimately, you are able to close one chapter and start another.
We are all a book of so many chapters waiting to be written and experienced. Don't deny yourself any of the fabulous stories waiting for you in your life.
If your chapter sucks, write "the end" and start a new one.
