Clean Pulls & Double WOD Perfectionism
A great quote and post the other day from a friend on Facebook:
After almost two months of daily #jojospeaks, yesterday was the first day that Jojo didn’t speak. We all have those days, Jojo reminded me. You know how upsetting it is when you’ve committed to doing something consistently, then you “mess it up.” Like eating well, exercising regularly, sleeping 8 hrs/night, being nice, keeping stress levels down, etc. You’re so dedicated — then some extenuating circumstance or a slip in motivation throws a wrench in it. It’s tempting to go down the perfection path: “My streak is over, so I guess I’m done now.” But there’s not much logic to that. If what you committed to originally was worthwhile, isn’t it still worthwhile despite missing a day or two? Isn’t some better than none? Isn’t most better than all?
What do you need to forgive yourself for so you can keep moving in the direction you want to go?
