Sorry guys! Ive been slacking on writing/participating in my "Project Me" Its weird how bad I feel for not actively working on all of these traits/values. Ive found that I really like/love having something to work on each day. It keeps me focusing on something positive and helps me to be more aware of myself and how Im acting and where Im act emotionally.
So...my new "thing" that Im wanting to work on is to not fill my mind with nonsense crap- such as Keeping up With the Kardashians, or Vanderpump Rules, or the Real Housewives of whereever, or any of those daily gossip magazines. Its absolutely mind blowing to me how much Ive tried to procrasitinate this step. It saddens me that Ive let myself want to watch those type of shows and to find any sort of entertainment value in those women. I hate what they stand for but yet Im drawn to wanting to know what they're doing and why. I found myself telling my husband to turn off something like National Geographic or the news to watch something like The Bachelor. Its almost embarrasing- a lie IT IS embarrassing to be saying this out loud but its the truth and if Im going to work on it then I have to be honest about it. So my goal this next week is not watch ANY of that crap and I guarntee this is going to be one of the harder things to change on my list, but I will give it my all. I will let ya know how its going in a few days.
Im also going to throw in another VERY difficult one that Im struggling with and need some pushing/encouragement/reminders to get through and that is NOT drinking so much soda/juice and drinking water instead. I am so AWFUL at this its unbelieveable. I tend to want a coke in the am and before bed and every other drink in between is a glass of juice or another soda that I usually end up wasting half of anyways. So Im going to be realisitic and not say that Im going to stop completely but this week Im going to vow to only have 1 soda a day and 1 glass of juice a day, which is quite the cut back for me. I am going to promise to drink at least 6 8oz glasses of water a day in exchange for the soda/juice. I am wanting to become healthy and one of the next few traits Im going to work on is becoming a healthy, fitness orientated person but I need to start with this soda drinking thing first. So starting on 2/22/14 I will stop filling my head with nonsense drama and stop filling my veins with soda/juice! Ill let ya know how it goes! Thanks for reading guys!
we should do a drinking water challenge together or something cause I'm terrible at drinking water over soda/lemonade/juice/etc. as well.
