The Workout That Changed My Life.

For the past few weeks I have been working out on a nightly basis. I have been doing yoga and rotating different exercise routines every other night. I have lost weight and that's fine but it’s not about that for me right now. Tonight was more different than any other. I have been pushing myself every night to go further and try harder. It has been an invigorating experience. I realized I was not only doing the stretches and moves but I was beginning to stabilize and hold my balance. I was able to do the moves along with the video for as long as the instructor was doing them. It was a great feeling of accomplishment for me. my arms are barely able to hold up my hands to write this. I attacked this workout, and it countered with venom. I am wiped out. But I feel so incredible. I have reached something I never thought I could. And it is the biggest motivator to keep pressing. To keep improving and to keep make these workouts my nightly Everest. I hope in some way this post inspires you to find your daily Everest and conquer it. I have found a nightly Everest but I haven't found a life Everest yet. I feel like I am on the right trail and I won’t stop or turn around. The future is rushing towards me head on and I will not give up.

*editor's note*
In the post The Necessary Time To Evolve I talked about some very emotional things and even brought up suicide. I would like everyone who reads these posts to know while that post was based in reality I embellished and exaggerated some of the details. So I thank you for the concern from those who expressed it, I have not nor will I ever consider suicide as an option.

If you or anyone you know is dealing with thoughts of suicide or depression you can contact suicidepreventionlifeline.org or Call 1-800-237-TALK (8255)
