Inspiration

I came across a video this morning on facebook.  It was posted by a friend from high school (thanks Kim) and it has inspired me to get off my ass and stop feeling sorry for myself.  My cousin said it best after viewing the shared video, and I quote "Wow amazing. I now know I am responsible for my own limitations in life."

The video and her words made me realise that I AM my own worst enemy, we all are.  I've been feeling really down lately and a lot has to do with not feeling happy with my appearance.  Granted I don't have the health issues this guy overcame but with my messed up back it's only a matter of time and I'm quickly headed in that direction.

I realise that the whole point of Spilt Milk was to help others.  Truthfully though how could I possibly help anyone feeling the way I do about myself?  That's just impossible.  So for the time being, Spilt Milk will be my forum for chronicling my transformation and with that hope to inspire those of you kind enough to read my posts as much as this man, and my very smart cousin have inspired me.

To see what I'm referring to please watch this video here and report back if you are not in the least bit inspired to get off your butt and do something to improve your life.  I promise you will thank yourself for making the decision to be a better you.  I know I have a battle ahead of me but I also know that I can do it.  I've done it once already and I know exactly what it takes.  It takes me not feeling sorry for myself, it takes me not procrastinating about it and it takes me being tired of being a fraction of the person I am meant to be.

Here's your challenge, share or keep it personal.  Make the decision to make a change in your life and then DO IT!!!! Get off your ass, stop feeling sorry for yourself and just DO IT!  I do want to add however, if you are in a place that paralyzes you from making changes, get help.  My telling you to get off your ass is of no benefit if you are not in the right mind set to do this with a healthy attitude. 

So for now, I'll say.  GOOD LUCK to all of you out there who accept this challenge and I look forward to seeing not only my progress but yours as well.

Tammy.
