Changes.

Already I can see the small mindset changes beginning to happen. I am a lot more positive about everything, not just things relating to the program. I am starting to bring those subconscious thought processes/excuses and looking at them a lot more objectively. So when I had been for a run last night and had a healthy dinner, I found myself planning what 'treat' I would have for dessert! And I wasn't even hungry! So a lot of these excuses are being addressed quickly and shut down even more quickly!!

I also found myself yesterday morning as my alarm sounded at 5:30am on a very cold morning, saying to myself "it's too cold", "I deserve to sleep in" and all these other BS things that I was telling myself to get out of something that was actually going to make me feel a lot better! So I snoozed the alarm. After work, I knew I was going for a run. I wasn't 'motivated' or 'diciplined', I just knew that I HAD to go for a run before I went to bed that night. So I did and it was a GREAT run! One of my best and longest runs. And when I got home, I wasn't hungry, the run kicked my appetite for a good few hours when normally I come home from work starving! I'm beginning to really understand and appreciate what Michelle says about 'motivation' being a myth and, rather that, consistency is the real key!

Looking forward to setting my goals for task 3 next! I'm waiting until I'm completely focussed and alone, so I can nut out a fabulous list of MY goals without the influence of anyone/anything else around me. Exciting times ahead indeed!!
