“are we there yet?”
“Are we there yet?”
“Are we there yet?”
My kids are reaching that age
Where
- they’re picking up on everything I say 👀 and do (wow does accountability work)
- They ask “are we there yet?” 😂
So when heading off for our holiday last week in Cornwall
And we hit traffic and which turned a 3 hour journey to about 6 hours…
It was very easy to just get frustrated and pi553d off…
We start moving in the car
And then ..
More traffic jams.
Throw on top the radio and hearing the news on repeat 10 times
And I could actually feel myself wasting quite a bit of energy on this
(needed a wee too. Which I couldn’t really say as i didn’t want to set off the 2 and 4 year old in the back who you’d expect to be the ones saying they needed a wee 😂)
Anyway..
I’ve got 2 choices in this situation:
- Complain / argue with reality
- Learn to love it and practice gratitude
On the topic of number 2)
It made me realise that I could write a blog
I could spend more time with kids (which we did by putting on some Moana and the latest Ibiza tracks to get the party started).
And what a difference to the mood and energy in the car.
It made me think:
Can it be that simple to change the way you feel?
And it’s the same when it comes to your weight loss..
We get frustrated when we go “off track”
Which I get.
But half the time we don’t even know what the “track” looks like..
And what if going “off track” was part of the plan to help you realise just how amazing the feeling of being fit and healthy is?
I cant tell you how many times I’ve had a few drinks
And gone “wow. I hate feeling like this”
And I learn to love the feeling of waking up full of energy
And showing up
Not just for my family
But for you, the Fruci Fit community and anyone I come across who I couple positively influence
No matter how small.
