Everything you have said in this post i had been at school and it followed through until I was 28 years old where i joined a Muay Thai PT Studio with my brother in law and trained my ass off hit a plateau, stopped going and started again 6 months later from scratch mind you. I'm now 32 years old and feel i've repeated that cycle 4 times already. I've never really achieved my goals. It is hard when we dont' know each other to give advice but your words do help.<br /><br />I'm a lovable person, caring and I give a lot to other people and I like to help them that's my whole family really. At that age i decided on a life long change in career to become a Personal Trainer. Now whether i decided to do this for me and/or others i'm not sure and I still don't know 4 years later. <br /><br />I'm like a yo yo to be honest and the mental game is hard to deal with at times juggling wanting to be fit, being a PT and working full time. I have a great man in my life who i'm marrying in November and I can't wait. I'm hard on myself i have to say that, i'm a Capricorn and I hate to fail therefore I fear failing which in turn STOPS me from achieving anything it is like a brick wall and i can't get over it nor do i know how. I'm confused and frustrated and every day is a battle to be honest, i really don't know how to prioritise. I train women 3 nights a week to help them but who is helping me...i'm in a new job and i'm a tad stressed to be honest. <br /><br />I don't know what i'm asking to be honest and i've never written on anyone else's blog before nor let along tell anyone this. I just felt that perhaps we or anyone reading, were on the same page yet not confused like me ha!<br /><br />I'm not obease i'm 72kilos 163cm tall and i've got every limb i was born with I've never been under the weight that i currently am my whole life. I've started CrossFit and love it, i'm just so scared, scared i'm going to stop like I always do for fear of pushing through and reaching my goal. I just don't know how. I can easily help others but when it comes to myself it's always put on the back burner. I've run 21kms in November and January did a trail run of 28km and stopped training in January for nearly 3 months now due to miss understandings, confusion and friendships just like your other blog. Achieving those runs weren't even a sucess for me and i've no idea why, especially when i've absolutely despised running in the past.<br /><br />Ok so without me dribbling on and on i'd really like your advice. I know i need to make the decision yet i'm just hoping you might say something that i haven't thought of as yet. PS i'm trying so hard to do Paleo i love the food.Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07929225291802057272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6167989506829384273.post-53962673185202436022012-04-13T02:43:36.517-07:002012-04-13T02:43:36.517-07:00Hi Marsha, I just wanted to let you know I love re...Hi Marsha, I just wanted to let you know I love reading your blog. I was always heavier when I was younger, despite my background in sports. I have always been inspired by health and fitness so I went to college for a degree in Fitness Development and now I am a certified personal trainer! I know you understand that even as personal trainers we still need motivation some days to get off the couch and work hard to achieve what we want. Today is one of those days for me so I just wanted to say Thank you! I am training for my first figure competition right now as well as training for Army Basic Training (I leave in a few months.) One of my goals is to be able to do a pushup. I am on a training plan for it now, but I was wondering what you did to achieve that level of strength? I feel like moving your own body weight is really what shows your outward strength. <br /><br />Thank you again!<br />SarahSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13305584809584226578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6167989506829384273.post-78872643638753634532012-04-03T05:14:13.597-07:002012-04-03T05:14:13.597-07:00I was picked last in gym and am still last to fini...I was picked last in gym and am still last to finish. That said, I no longer define myself by being last......it's all about balance while exiting one's comfort zone.<br /><br />As usual, great post, Marsha.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
