So on Sunday something that was shared really stuck with me. A friend of mine was sharing about when she was training for her first marathon, and that a big part of that was a mental block, and she said that at some point she just had to believe that she was the kind of girl who ran marathons. And that got me to thinking...
I am the kind of girl who can run a marathon.
And that got me to thinking some more.... If I'm the kind of girl who can run a marathon, what else can I do? Surely I can make myself do a 20 minute work out video each day. Surely I can make myself get to the gym twice a week and put some time in on the treadmill or elliptical. And so many other things. So now I want to make up a DIY "whiteboard." I am going to print out a paper that on the top says "I'm the kind of girl who can run a marathon" and then frame it, so that there is space where I can write on the glass my short term goals that I'm working on, and change them as new ones arise, etc. Of course, that will involve getting somewhere to find a frame, and I may be the kind of girl who can run a marathon, but I don't know that I'm the kind of girl who can make herself run an errand!

Love it! Good idea. I may not be able to movitate you to run a marathon, but I am quite good at running errands and spending money. So I'll encourage that part. Go get the frame...you can do it Lauren!
