Goals

I can't believe how well I am doing. I am SO proud of me. I did another 3 miles tonight at the track. It was tough but more of a mental thing. I did my pace, had my IPod on and I was good. Around 2 miles got tough, but I felt good finishing it up and even put in an extra boost on the last lap! VERY proud of how far I have come.

After I got home tonight, I drove around my block. I had a feeling it was a mile. Yup... EXACTLY! Funny! I was a little worried about running the 3rd time this week, but I think I will just run my block now. I'll know that it is 3 miles and I won't have to worrry about where I am at on the laps. The weather is going to be 90 on Saturday so obviously I'll be beach bound, but I can run that block before I go. I'll just get up early. That'll be SO hard just running on the road, different than the track, but again... mental challenge. And now I know I can do it!

Tomorrow night is boot camp again. Alex is going to kick my butt but I can't wait for it! I need it. I have slacked over the past few months working out. Yeah, I've been doing the 5K training, but that's it. SO I really need to get back in gear with everything else.

Things are good. I just need to keep focusing on the positive. I know I am great with setting goals and working to achieve them. I am extremely determined when it comes to meeting expectations I set for me and those that are set for me. I need to continue to find positive goals to work for that will keep me on the path I want to go on.

Also, in areas that are challenging... like work and some difficult accounts I handle, I need to change my mindset. Today after some great insight I received, I realized many things. Yes, I am great at goals. I did a great job about keeping my New Year resolutions the past few years... reaching my goals, and I have continued to push myself out of my comfort zone, through the fear and pushed past to further my horizons. I do that in my personal life amazingly well. Now I need to change my mindset at work. I need to take what has been working so well in my personal life and apply it to the office. I need to rewire the way I think about work and the issues that come up that cause me stress and make me crazy.

I feel really good about all of this. Things are going well and going in the right direction. And the insight from today will really make a great impact in my life.
