Bulletin Board Inspiration

Working in an elementary school has its perks.  I have been noticing that inspiration can come from all sorts of places.  Check out some things I found around school that help keep me motivated. 

 

 

This bulletin board is a reminder that this is really a battle of the mind.  I have to stay focused and stay positive.  If I become discouraging in my thoughts, I will not be successful.  

 

 

This reminds me that I need to pace myself in all things.  I am not going to achieve my fitness goals quickly.  I am not going to be able to run a race with a seven minute mile right now, and I am not going to become a size smaller overnight. I need to pace myself.  Pacing will help me not to get overwhelmed, frustrated, and quit.  

 

 

This reminds me that YES, I can do it!  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.  I am going to keep repeating that verse over and over while running. 

 

A special shout out to Mike and Tisha for both saying today that they can tell I have been losing weight.  It is difficult for me to see it so I appreciate it so much when people just come up and say something to me. 

 

Tomorrow is my day of rest, and then I am doing a two mile run on Saturday.  Any predictions on what my mile time will be?
