I didn’t need motivation today… I needed space.
I sat at my laptop feeling “off” and couldn’t quite figure out why. Well I knew why ( I’m talking s**t 😂) but I was under the pressure of a deadline
My mind was all foggy… like my brain just wasn’t wanting to play ball.
Fu**er 🔫😂
Right now I’m deep in prep behind the scenes for my second fitness retreat this weekend for And while I’m REALLY excited for it as last year was just amazing, it’s a lot behind the scene, training, food, logistics, people, timing… all of it.
And I could feel myself trying to push through, but getting nowhere.
Ever get that feeling with a deadline?
So instead of forcing it, I did something I didn’t always do when I feel like that before my reset
I put my trainers on.
Put my headphones in.
And went for an 6k run around my new area.
No overthinking. No pressure. Just movement and space.
And everything shifted.😍
I came back clearer. Calmer. More focused.
And I ended up getting another 30 minutes of work done straight after, this time with ease and a little feeling back to “ let’s get this s**t done”
It reminded me again that when your brain feels overwhelmed, the answer isn’t always more pushing, more thinking, or more hours at your laptop.
Even when you think the last thing you need is to step away from work with a deadline… you probably need to.
Sometimes it’s stepping away first so you can come back better.
If this hits home to the times you’ve sat there against it and thought “ I can’t as I’ve got to much on, move” get yourself moving
Don’t skip your PT session, class, gym session or like myself that run
Exercise isn’t just for body composition, it’s an AMAZING tool for mental clarity ❤️
