Two-fer Report

Greetings and Salutations,
     Well, my week is well underway and I have actually managed to workout 3 mornings in a row. I have to totally admit it was touch and go and I have to keep fingers and toes crossed for myself for the next 2 days. Yesterday I was missing an hour from my sleep so I got out of bed one hour later than I intended. However, I continued to move forward. I biked 5 miles and ran out of time to get ready for work (ie makeup) or work on my Life Cheerleader blog.
     I am learning it isn't about what you don't get done. It is about making a small manageable list and working with the flow of life. It is about continuing to move forward and picking up the pieces you missed as you go. It is easy to loose interest or momentum when you miss a few things on your list but moving forward is essential to overall success.
     For example, my intent was to do yoga and blog Tuesday morning. I ran out of time because making up the hour of sleep I lost and biking was more important that yoga or blogging. So when I got home before I went to bed, I took 30 minutes to work on my blog and did 20 minutes of yoga and 10 minutes of meditation. It felt good I could still mark those things off my list for the day.
     Structure is key. Set a time frame and move on to the next thing when the time you have allotted for that particular task or event has expired. You will catch what you missed with the next batch of things. Maybe you finish a task early and can work on something that fell to the wayside previously.
     This morning I was tardy getting out of bed again but stuck with it. I swam 20 minutes and had enough time to get purdy for work with makeup. My co-workers about died to see makeup on me twice in one week. I think they think I have lost my mind. I didn't blog (this morning) but here I am now getting caught up. Have to do a few more things tomorrow to be back on task but over all I am stoked I exercised 3 days in a row. 3 times in a week has been easier to accomplish than 3 in a row.
     Tomorrow is biking and the goal is back to 10 miles. Cooking because I never cooked the other meals for dinner, and have to e-mail my personal goals for the last quarter of the year to a partner in crime. Hope you week is rocking and hope any goal you set for yourself is coming along nicely! Cheers!

Tootles :)
