Somedays you need a little Will Power!

The first 18 days of my journey have been successful for me. I have lost 10 pounds. I have written my blog and done my Still Motion Workout everyday. But yesterday, day 19, was one of those "busy" days with work, parenting responsibilities and "stuff" to do (oh wait… aren’t they all like that?) and I found myself at the end of the day exhausted with a one of those headaches that goes right behind the eyes.

Now it will not be the end of the world if I miss a day doing my workouts but somehow I was compelled to get down on the floor and at least get a basic one in. After about 20 to 30 isometric holds and moving my body from position to position I found some momentum and in 30 minutes I worked up a good sweat and felt a lot better.

Normally I might have just skipped it and said to myself, “Just rest and get up and do it tomorrow” but I think we all have that power of will in us that if we can just gather up for a moment we can turn it into momentum.

Doing just that quick workout I then found myself down at the park with my kid hitting some baseballs and having a catch. Sun lowering on the horizon, my kid laughing and smiling I thought the power of will is a pretty cool thing and sometimes you need to summon it up because this moment is worth it!

Health and Happiness!
