Today is NOT the Day to Give Up!

Today may be a day where you just don’t feel like ‘doing it’. You are mentally checking out of your goals – maybe because you are feeling tired, sore, or like nothing is happening for you. These are the days that count. The small tasks that lead you to your goal? They should be done today; irrespective of your mood. This is where the real training of your mind begins. Put your shoes on, and go for that exercise session. Turn the television off and write one more blog psot, paragraph in the program or page in the book that you are writing. Put your phone down and spend quality time with people or start organising that drawer that you’ve been throwing things in for ages. Make that healthy meal that seems so difficult in the face of takeaway. Do these things. Today is the day where, if you stick to your purpose, you will find that deeper sense of satisfaction and you will get to know a new version of yourself. The person who CAN do it, despite a ‘lack of motivation’. These are the little bits of evidence you can look back on and use to push yourself again and again to be the better you. Your goal is made up of thousands of little decisions, just like the ones today; decisions to become better. Today is not the day to give up.
