I Fail at Commitment

Or I have a need to be committed, I have yet to decide.

I struggle with follow through. I'm a grand one for saying - yes, I will certainly do this or that, even if it requires a repetitive practice for months at a time -

Although I *did* finish NaBloPoMo last year, and I *did* make my Black Belt - those are oddities.

But even though I give up, I keep circling back and picking up. I'm not sure what that says about me - either I'm weak and give up too easily, or that I'm a glutton and keep coming back for more of the same.

Today I went back to Crossfit stuff. So I'm beginning again, I guess, with this stuff.

Project 18/366 - round 1 8:14, round 2 8:15, round 3 8:45. Executed with 8kg kettlebells - which are a bit over 17 pounds each. My arms, they be tired, yo. And my palms be blistery.

And to keep true to my promise, here's yesterday's photo:

Project 17/366 - the only one of my kids studies

Wanna lay odds on how long it'll take me to give up each of these? And, maybe, remember to use spell check when I type so fast!

I commented on this post, I don't know why it disappeared. You won't fail. By just trying you won't fail.
Of course, now I'm wondering what a "clean and jerk" is and also a "bat wing". *g*
Best wishes!

Thanks for sharing this article. I am a Massage Therapist and I have believed in the importance of physical activity. I now have some research to back my rationale to implement at least 20 minutes per day of aerobic activity. I am going to search for some supplemental to jogging, jump ropes and kids aerobic dance dvd's so that I advise my clients to try incorporating exercise as a lifelong habit! I love the ideas of using stationary bikes, dance dance revolution type games etc. Thanks so much for your blog.
