DAY 1 - What I want to do

I want to get fit again and feel healthy the way I use to, but keep saying to myself that I haven’t got the time, I haven’t got the equipment and that I haven’t got the motivation.

That is all a big joke.

I have the time, I have one, three and a half month old baby who actually sleeps a lot, and will quite happily lay on the bed or floor for twenty minutes while I do a few reps in the kitchen. She even waits patiently while I change her nappy,  but half way through get side tracked by trying to organize her room (which she doesn’t even crawl around in and pull things out yet, but wow, it is so messy!).

And equipment? Wow that is bad, I have my own flabby body weight, and I have some nice 3-5 kg pumpkins from my garden hanging around, I can lift them, even better I can lift my 8kg baby!

And the whole motivation thing, well, that is just comes down to the good old never-get-it-done me, the procrastination-er. And the fact that for 2 years I ate quite healthy, never let my eyes decide how much I was going to eat, had some damn self-control over buying snacks when grocery shopping, and I planned my meals; makes me feel even worse for having ‘no motivation’ because, I know very well that I can do it, I did it before, I can certainly do it again! And while I’m on the subject of motivation, this whole post is about pretty much just that; actually doing something, instead of thinking about it. I will go for a walk, doesn’t matter how I try and talk myself out of it; I will do a blog post every day, even if I think I have nothing to write about, someone out there might find it interesting. And of yes, I will read books, they were always fun when I was a teenager, why now do I find scrolling through the same posts on facebook everyday fun, or on twitter, or Instagram? Every time I think about how often I do that, I kinda feel sick.

So I’m not going to think about all the amazing things I can be doing, I’m going to do them. Starting with this post, and starting with A fifteen minute work each day, Monday to Friday. And no more snack foods, cause really, does anyone feel amazing after eating a whole tube of Pringles (guilty!)? No, I didn’t think so.

Hmm, I might even video what I eat each day, and the workout I do. Scrap that.

I AM doing that!

Let’s follow each other, and encourage each human to be the best they can be!

SELF CONTROL is STRENGTH, RIGHT THOUGHT is MASTERY, CALMNESS is POWER - James Allen

When I think

When I think about 'blogging', you know, some content for people of the internet group-ees to read and laugh at, it makes me feel good.
You know, like, that I am actually fulfilling what I had in my mind that I would do.
But as you KNOW, that kind of thing never really (ever) happens.. at all.
So, I decided, that next time I go to out; into town, beach, for a walk or something of the likes, I will do my best to take 2 photos, no less, and post them on here regularly.
Because, if I take photos on my phone, I can instantly upload them to a post, and any 'editing' can be done when I get onto my little white laptop!!!

SOOOO, with all that said, I will try and start doing that ASAP, and if I can manage to keep doing it, and you all like viewing the little short posts, I will reward you (and myself in a way) with proper posts on legit 'argument, fashion shoots, interesting doing's, and other random things that take more than 3 minutes to post up.

(basically a way of saying to you that I am really lazy and anything that may take more than 5 minutes is an effort and you should feel privileged to have me take the time out and devote it for you visual entertainment)

Well, I FEEL like I should feel bad about something.... but nevermind.

Visual candy to some soon, so stay tuned!

Moe,

This photo has no relevance to this post, but the fact that I will try and post words AND photos.

Posting on the go

I, in all my being, intelligence, wisdom and physical strength....  not; Have recovered the convenience of having a smart phone so as to be able to surf the web, shop, post photos, and write on my blog while I'm constantly in a difference place of location during the day.
As the phones got smaller, and the ideas got bigger, and we decided that after the Iphone 5, that we could have something that is a little bigger, not quite a phone size, but rather like holding a book up to your ear if you tried, yet perfect size to sit up 'till ridiculous hours of the night watching YouTube, reading our favourites blogs, updating our twitter status or Facebook profile picture.
I put a lot of faith into technology, that it will keep my work files safe and not delete them, keep my photos where I can find them and now with my new digital sewing machine, that it won't say straight stitch and then give me button hole.

I think, as I sit here at 10:30pm, thanks to technology and some person out there with an idea and their contacts, has brought me my little phone that I couldn't be without- all for good reasons ant of you older generation dissing internet and it's little phones and Facebook.
