2 months ago I had initiated a hard restart. My goal was 300 push ups and sit ups every day. I did great the first week and after some health issues slowed down a bit, but averaged 200 of each for the first month which is still pretty decent. As a result, I can relate my increased effort to an increase in sales at work. This is a huge benefit, but comes with a much bigger work load. During month 2, I struggled to find some balance with the increased work load, getting ready for the Tiger Challenge, working on requirements, my second job and just regular life in general. Push ups and sit ups started to slow down again. I would definitely think of them from time to time, but was reluctant to make the time or put in the effort for fear of benefiting even more. It seemed that as I slowed down on some of the requirements I found myself able to catch up on work projects and create a bit more balance.
This weekend I was reminded that we are never given more than we can handle. Anything thrown our way is an opportunity for learning and growth and can be managed with the correct tools and perspective. So, I'm doing a bit of mind reset and taking some deep breaths as I restart yet again.
