So I've decided that my new motto is drive! I'm trying to have a drive for accomplishment more than I currently do. So in order to have that I need to keep that in mind. I really want to get into better shape. My friends wedding is on the 23rd of December and my sisters and I got our bridesmaid dresses last week. My dress is a bit snug and its hard for me to breathe in it so I need to lose at least a few pounds before then. So I need to have the drive right now to lose the weight even though this is the time of year people tend to gain weight. Today I walked 4 miles and did 20 minutes of yoga, as well as playing with my 2 year old nephew (which yes, I do consider the exercise). On top of this I am also limiting my food intake so that I won't be tempted to go on a free for all and eat everything in the kitchen.
Another thing I want to work on is my languages I want improve on. I want to get better at my french as well as my SEE (signing exact English, the school district uses this for communication with Deaf students). I also want to read more things that aren't Harry Potter fanfiction which I read WAY too much of. I want to be the best me possible and in order to do that I have to have the personal drive to make it happen. I'm too heavy right now so my first goal has to be to have the drive to get the weight off. People tend to believe what they see and they believe heavier people don't have drive so if I want someone to believe I have drive then I have to have the drive to get the weight off. Its a cruel fact of our society that I have to accept and beat.
I also what to start making sure I take a multivitamin and drinking a lot more water so I can become healthier all around. I'm glad I don't suffer from anything such as anxiety, but sometimes having no sense of a drive can be worse. A lot of people don't even think about their lack of a drive so I am glad it has been brought to my attention that I am lacking in that area so that I am able to take care of it and improve upon myself because before I wouldn't have realized why I wasn't making any improvement. If I am able to wake up every morning and remind myself that this lack of a drive is something I have to beat then I will be more likely to be able to beat it!
