Are You Getting In The Way?

This past weekend I got my hands on Tyrese Gibson's new book "How to Get Out of Your Own Way", and couldn't help but to recognize numerous ways in which I have indulged in self-sabotage, laziness and apathy towards reaching some goals that I would like to achieve in my lifetime. I know that if I was on my death bed today I would have some serious regrets.

Why is it I'm able to achieve some goals but flounder when it comes to the goals that would enrich my life, others, and overall make me a better person? For instance, I've always wanted to be athletic. Even though, I actually enjoy working out for the most part and as I get older I recognize how moving more can help - to well move more - I don't do much to recognize my athletic dreams ! How do I get out of my way? How do I stop the cycle of starting and stopping achieving a dream that I solely have the power to make come true?

I see the runners, cyclists, snowboarders, even weekend tennis players and I want in! So I'm giving myself permission to live the way I want for one year. In this year, I'm going to get out my way to embark on living the life I've always wanted, I'm going to train so that I can hit the slopes next winter without being a sore mess! It's going to be a uphill battle but I hope to see you at the top!
