The TRUTH about Forward Progress
As women - our health and wellness can be a very interesting puzzle.
It takes research. Commitment. Grit. Perseverance.
And often times - extra emotional energy that we don't necessarily have in the tank.
The God’s honest truth? It’s not an easy process. Forward motion takes intentional effort and hard work. But I want you to know - the “hard” that comes from working on our wellness from the inside out..that’s the kind of “hard” that is absolutely worth it - 100% of the time.
Here are 3 important things to know about forward progress on our health journey…
IT TAKES A LOT OF TIME: We live in an instant gratification world. Any level of progress, change, transformation, newness or evolution we want - physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually - takes time. A LOT of time. And incredible patience.
Stop giving up before you even allow yourself to get into a groove with forward movement.ITS NOT LINEAR: When the going gets tough, choose to LEARN from the setbacks. Progress is not one long, linear straight line. You will hit walls. You will hit adversity. You will take 10 steps back as you go forward.
Embrace the process of the ebb and flow. The sooner you stop fighting it, the sooner you'll start to create sustainable change.GO DEEP TO GO FAR: Progress is an inside out job. A journey. Anything we neglect to nurture will show up in some way in our life. Going deep is the surefire way to going far. Why?
Because transparency, honesty and vulnerability allow us to learn exactly who we are, who we aren't, what we need, and what we want as we dive into what progress truly looks like and feels like for us.
Keep going, my friend. Remember - not easy, but worth it. Because YOU are worth it!
