BodyRock HIITMax I Workout 52 - Full Body Sweat

If we were honest with ourselves about who we were as people we could avoid making promises to ourselves that we have no intention of keeping. I'm not a morning person. At all. 8 AM is getting up early for me. I tend to rise a bit later, because I tend to work late - I usually switch off around 2 AM. So knowing this, I would never make the promise to myself to workout at 6 AM. I might like the idea of getting up with the sunrise and embracing the dawn by BodyRocking, getting that early jump into life each day, but if I'm true to myself - I'm not ever going to be that person - and you know what? It's perfectly fine. I workout later in my day. What I don't do anymore is set myself up for failure by making unrealistic promises to myself. Same goes for food. I no longer promise to be 100% compliant 24/7. I give myself Saturday's to eat whatever I want (hello 5 Guys). It's a strategy that if I'm willing to be honest with myself works for me. Am I saying that you can't make changes in your life? No - absolutely not. But pick your battles and know thy self. Part of winning at all of this is making it work for you. Ultimately there is no singular 'right way' there can only be your way - and if you start from a place of personal honesty with yourself you can avoid a lot of obvious failures and the unraveling of your confidence and the feelings of helpless powerlessness that comes from letting yourself down repeatedly. In 2015, make promises to yourself that you can keep. Because true honesty comes in the intention before any promise is ever uttered. Enjoy your training.
