It’s October 17, two days past what those in the tax profession call the 2014 filing season. This past week has been horrible with 12 hour work days, shortened tempers, unhealthy food choices and lack of sleep.
I thought that I would be back to doing the things I always do – exercising, eating healthy, feeling good about things. But that inner voice that gets me moving and doing things seems to have vanished. Right now, I am having a hard time making decisions, wanting to exercise – wanting to do anything at all.
Last night I thought that I would get up and go to the gym. However when the alarm went off I was just happy to make it into the kitchen for a cup of coffee. I did finally make it upstairs to our garage exercise room to go through some motion of exercise. While exercising I started to bemoan in my head my lack of an exercise partner. If only I had someone to kick me in the butt, then I would get off my butt and get moving. If only I had someone who would go with me to the gym I would have such a buff body – Ha!. I’m thinking to myself – where is all this coming from. The light bulb went off – I have a bad case of the Blahs – my inner motivation has gone. Motivation, please come back. I miss you desperately. Maybe after a few more days of rest and normal work hours you will come back. 😜
