I feel so mighty today!
I've been going on morning jogs with my lovely running partner and it's making a big difference in my happiness points and generally helping me feel good about life.
But running aside - today I scaled a wall I thought was impossible to climb before! I was in a hurry to skip-ska-daddle out of my apartment to get to the lovely cooking class I've been looking forward to for months. I packed up my apron, ipod and sun glasses and ran out of the house to get there early - only forgetting my keys were sitting on the kitchen table with the door locked behind me. I sat on the steps feeling a bit defeated - called the landlord to get some help - then I realized if I did some circus maneuvering I could climb into my window. With my cowgirl boots off and to the side and my dress only slightly limiting my motion - I was an unstoppable force climbing my brick wall in the rain. After two different approach strategies - I made it to the window, opened the screen and wedged myself in! Thankfully there were no spectators and only a slightly skimmed knee to show for it.
It's doing something small that you thought was impossible that makes you realize you're capable of a lot more than you give yourself credit for...
My nice thing for myself today - it's to break down the invisible walls of impossible. I Stop letting my false barriers keep me back and I'm starting to push myself up up up and beyond!
