It hit me again!

So I was in a meeting this afternoon, and while sitting in this meeting I feel a headache forming! I have been overwhelmingly stressing my 'things to do list' in my life. School, work, home, and now a couple of personal goals they all seem to compile one on top of the other, and leave me with my head feeling like it weights a 1000lbs. So not only does this headache make me feel temporarily insane and unable to focus, I have realized that it made me feel so 'unfit" for the many challenging tasks I have set for myself. It's now Day 2 since I've decided that perhaps just perhaps this was "IT" I can't continue to ignore the obvious symptoms for my lack of 'exercise' not to mention 'committment'. I sat down in the meeting, and it hit me, I am so bad at juggling my priorities and it stresses me out. How can I even begin to accomplish all these other goals in life, if I can't even take care of myself. It was like my inner gaby was asking me to take care of her. We consume ourselves with this world and our goals and fail to care for "us" the place where my true strengths will come from. In order for me to keep my heart healthy, open, and clear from making irrational decisions I have to remain at peace and calm. So what does this have to do with running? Glad you asked, in order for me to keep that peace within myself and be 'healthy emotionally' I need to make sure I incorporate that exercise, and commit to my running. Even if I just take 15 minutes a day to start, I will progress. I am not only going to be able but I have to be willing to listen to myself when it's calling out to me. Committing to this exercise will benefit me staying focused in all these goals in life, and not give up when it gets a little tough. If there is one things I have learned through my faith is that God's love for me pours out so that I can make it fill me completely. Allowing me to love myself and realize that GOD wants the best for me always, therefore I shouldn't expect less for myself.
