I was sitting in my car at the gas station after filling my tank when I had a feeling of my skin tightening around me. That’s what happens when I feel stress or anxiety about something I am about to do, or when I know I am leaving something undone that I need to be getting done.
Why is it so hard to re-establish good habits? I’ve gone four days straight without going to the gym or riding my bike, and it’s been at least twice that since I’ve read through my books and wrote a blog post here.
Work swallows me up, I get tired, and I convince myself that I’ll start again tomorrow. That never works, but I still fall for the trick every time.
I don’t even have anything to write about this morning, but I just need to write to alleviate the pressure. It’s easy when I just start typing–even if I have nothing to say.
