The article continues on to say -- screw that! Make a commitment to yourself, and if you fail to honor it, try again. Often times, we get so hard on ourselves for not keeping our resolutions that we fall back to the same, sometimes destructive, pattern. This resonated with me because, yeah, when I skip an exercise day or ate a lot of sweets, I do become hard on myself. But after reading that article, I try to be more conscious of how I talk to myself. I should be motivating instead of shaming myself.
So starting today, here are the things I would like to do on a daily basis. If I skip a day or two, forgive me please as I forgive myself, but I shall get up and try again the following day 😊
• say the rosary or hear mass
• study with Aki
• read books for self-growth
• read the Bible
• write an entry on this blog
• exercise
...and I'm leaving you with some reminders to speak kindly to yourself because I love you and God loves you even more. 😘
