Second Chances

Second Chances

With so much already going on in our lives, anytime something new is added - be it a diet, new workout plan, your new man(friend?...If only it was more clear!), or in my case starting this blog - finding time can be hard. 

I had wanted to start a health blog for over a year and never got around to it.  I always pushed it off claiming that I didn’t want to start it until I had more time.  First it was next weekend, then after I finish this project, and then next summer and the cycle would continue. The fact is, there may never come time where you have more time.  Life doesn’t stop for you to make the changes you want to make.  You have to make the changes fit into your life. 

So for me, there came a day when I decided enough is enough. Starting a blog is important to me, so enough talk, i am making this blog.

And yeah, for the first few weeks it was great! I blogged frequently and passionately, but then I started job hunting, finals came around and the blog got pushed to the way side.  After graduating, I’d thought i’d have more time, but as we all know, time does just come to you, you have to make the time.

So this is TAKE II.

This time I’m going to see this through until the end. 

I hope that what you take away from this is that in working toward our goals there is always the opportunity for a second chance.  Now, of course it’s better to stay on track and reach your goals the first time, but if you fall off the path, it’s OK.  Get back up and try again.  If you are willing to take the time to make the changes necessary and commit to them, you CAN and you WILL achieve your goals.

It doesn’t matter how many nutrition books you read, how many diet recipes you save, or how many gym memberships you have, being healthy and feeling good requires making concrete LIFESTYLE CHANGES and sticking to your plan.  And the same goes for blogging, or any new project for that matter.
