Firmly believing that people make time for whats important to them and excuses for everything else. I committed to blogging daily for one year when I started this because it was important to me and as it touched the lives of some it became a priority and not an option, even on days I have nothing to say. So I ask myself why am I a procrastinator in other areas that are equally or more important. My weight, while I've finally embraced the fact that thick women are beautiful. I know that I'm not healthy and this weight could kill me. I realize that I could walk out of my home and get hit by a bus; yes I know we all have to die, but it doesn't have to be from something we could have controlled. I have 100% control over what goes in my mouth and the amount of time I devote to exercise, so I ask myself is it that I don't want it bad enough? What am I putting in front of exercise; Excuses!
My point is one day putting these things off for tomorrow will not come. I will not get a redo and it will be too late to say later. If you know that you need to mend a broken relationship, do it. If your medicine cabinet resembles a pharmacy because of weight related medical issues then your fat is not sexy but deadly. If your finances are a mess and you owe the world then God can't trust you with more and your family and friends are not going to give you more. I was in a place with my parents that they had to help me so much that I stopped receiving Christmas, Birthday and Mothers day gifts and now instead of running to them with my reasons (excuses) for help, I either figure it out or I wait and go without. I grew up in that area because it was important to me to have an adult adult relationship and not an adult child relationship with them. It's time out for excuses let's do the important stuff now, it can't wait for later. I don't want my headstone to read, Incomplete Due to Excuses.
