“I want wellies oooonnnnnn”
My 2 year old daughter would say every Sunday as
we get ready for Rugby Tots…
So there I am trying to explain
How running in wellies probably
Is NOT optimal …to a 2 year old!
She persists..
And I decide to let her find out…
She’d actually fall over a few times
And that’s where I would come in with the annoying
‘I told you so’ saying like:
“I think it’s because you are wearing wellies’ haha
But the last few weeks we had to miss ruby tots…
Family, weddings, Easter etc..
It had been a good 3 or 4 weeks since we’ve been..
So there I am on Sunday getting Ottilie ready for rugby tots
(military operation to get her fed and there for a 9am on a Sunday…)
Expecting a battle for the wellies on…
Annnnnnddd..
Nothing..
Just her trainers.
She didn’t even want to take her little dog teddy.
THEN..
I notice she’s WAY more on it, attentive, replying to what they say when they ask questions like
How many hands do you hold a rugby ball with, how many points do you get for a try (which I didn’t even know the answer to haha)
I was actually really surprised…
Just 3 / 4 weeks later?
And my daughter has changed SOOO much..
I hadn’t noticed this at home..
It was only when we went to rugby tots
That I noticed
Because we had something to compare to..
My point?
Too often do I see ladies
Get disheartened too soon
Simply because they are comparing their ACTUAL progress
To this illusive ‘IDEAL’ / ‘PERFECT’ progress
That you ‘believe’ is what you should be doing.
Forgetting WHERE THEY WERE JUST 2, 3, or 4 WEEKS AGO..
Forgetting the progress that you have made
Not just in your weight, body shape
But your HABITS..
Because it is a FACT that doing the small, simple things day in day out
Will give you the results you want
So the secret?
Do something that you find FUN
And fits your lifestyle
So you can stick to it long enough to see the results you want and keep them for good..
And all of a sudden
Watch your confidence grow
Just like Liz said the other day:
“Great week and feel great all down to you and your workouts.
Feels like I will be able to get back to where I was a few years ago
YAY”
So what if
The best years are actually ahead?
Wouldn’t it be fun to find out?
