Repetition
Repetition makes everything easier!
It goes for running, and journaling, and almost anything else. The more I do something, the easier it gets.
Then I take the weekend off - especially if it's a long weekend like this one - and it's tough to get back into it. I'm feeling my feet drag as I write tonight. I'll certainly feel the same on my run in the morning.
But tomorrow will be easier. Then easier again the next day. And it peaks at the end of the week when I've already been doing it for the past 4 days.
Vacations, holidays, trips all tend to throw me off my schedule a bit. The Summers are notoriously a more turbulant time for my consistency. But when I'm on it for a few weeks in a row, man I can really start cruising! Everything becomes completely effortless.
Part of me questions why I don't do it every day. The truth is I probably would feel even better. Everything would get even easier. Results would be better.
But I understand and appreciate that rest is important. And it's those breaks and time when I disconnect are really just opportunities to launch myself further. So then I need to start climbing again. I need to put in my reps!
I felt it on vacation a week ago. I felt it when I got back early this morning from my parents house. Some parts of my routine I can't wait to get back to. Others I ultimately dread lol. But that drives me forward. And it's always that burn that motivates me even more.
I like when it hurts because I know its only gonna get easier from here : )
