LOUD AND CLEAR

Alright I don’t know if anyone but me has noticed, but for the last two days I’ve been slacking. Not a lot, but enough for me to notice. I’ve been sleeping in a little later and skipping reading my books with the excuse, “oh, im uncomfortably pregnant I need a little extra sleep”. You know what? An excuse is an excuse no matter what. I know that and the universe knows that. Little example here for ya. This morning I’m laying in bed, my a husband has already gone to work, I did get up at 4 and get his shit ready for him like I do most mornings, I came back down to my room and went back to bed once he left per usual. My alarm is supposed to go off at 7 to get my son up and ready and I woke up at 6:43 and thought I’ll shut it off right now so it doesn’t wake up to baby and I can sleep in a little longer and I’ll just work out later. I shit you not, three minutes later, RIGHT after I fell asleep, my daughter headbutts me in the face TWICE. I laughed like a maniac. I have a fat lip and a black eye courtesy of my daughter as a message from the universe to quit being a pussy, put my big girl pants on, get up, keep my promises to myself, and do what is congruent to my goal of continual growth. Laying in bed coming up with weak ass excuses as to why I can get away with slacking is absolutely not congruent with any of my goals and if anyone around me tried that shit I’d call them out too! We’re in it to grow not plateau. Get your ass up, do what you said you were gonna do, and be the best the best version of yourself NO MATTER WHAT. It may have taken a sneak attack double headbutt from an infant to set me straight, but I hear you, universe, loud and clear. An excuse is an excuse. I got my ass up, made sure my son was ready, got my daughter dressed, did my work out plus 100 squats, read my meditation, meditated, fed the baby, showered, and now I’m sipping my coffee writing this post, because I was absolutely capable of doing my routine regardless of being “uncomfortably pregnant”, that was just a shitty excuse from my weaker self trying to get me to feed into the negativity of not reaching my full potential today. Total bullshit. No excuses. Get up and do your shit. There’s no excuse you can come up with that’s good enough to skip your self improvement routine. Did you get up to go to work when you didn’t want to? Or bring the kids to school? Or to watch your favorite show? If you’ll get up early for anything else why wouldn’t you get up early to work on yourself? Don’t lie to yourself, you’re worth more than that. Even if know one else knows you’re slacking, you know it and the universe knows it.
