There is STRENGTH in starting over

Starting over sucks...but quitting sucks worse.

After 9+ months of not being able to workout at full intensity, I'm now back at it and I could NOT be happier!! However...that doesn't change the fact that it's REALLY hard.


I can't do things that used to be simple for me. I'm struggling with actually knowing how to push myself when that used to just come naturally. It's frustrating and a huge part of me wishes it would all just come back overnight but then I remember THIS:

The WORK is where the beauty happens...the struggle, the sweat, the frustrations, the tears all make you STRONGER and change you from the inside out!! 

So the next time you want to wish away a certain stage of your life...or maybe just to make it go faster....STOP and pay attention to what you're learning and what you're becoming. There's probably a lot more going on inside of you than you even realize!
