I spent a lot of hours trying to move from one platform onto another. I had coaching calls. I felt disheveled in how i was using my time and managing my productivity. 𝘐 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘻𝘦𝘥 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘬𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘮𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘴.⁣

I was trying to log food even when I was eating low nutrient foods, drinking more than normal and lagging in my training.⁣
⁣
I started to tell myself that I was going to “𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝗮𝘁” and try to eyeball my macros.⁣

I wouldn’t coach my clients this way and I sure as s**t know that I’m not successful on that track.⁣
⁣
But I’m OK with taking a few days to sit in the thick of it and evaluate what I need to do and focus on to get back on track.⁣
⁣
We have to take necessary time for ourselves, show ourselves a little grace in the heavy and be able to feel blessed about the hard work we have put in and how much we are able to serve ourselves and others from a place of genuineness and love⁣
⁣
To do that we must show ourselves 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙚 ⁣
