No Excuses

COMPLETED!!!! Plus the bonus 100 to show my appreciation to all those I tortured with getting these numbers in! *** This challenge was to support Stop Soldier Suicide. It is so important to Our Soldiers, soldiers friends and soldiers families to have resources available to help them cope with things some of us may never even notice they are dealing with. There is a much bigger picture. If you would like to know more or know someone that may need the info... https://stopsoldiersuicide.org/our-process

So I was writing burpees on the board today and noticed something funny. After almost 2,000 burpees in April, and yielding some very entertaining comments/complaints .... I realized (odd that I didn’t before) the actual word was made up of BURP and PEES... was that intentionally named due to the side effects for some ppl ?????

Kristy Droske MS, CPT, CHWC, CES, CSS Over the past 6 months I have been working on some additional education and focus on growing in my ability to help people reach their goals on a multitude of levels and areas. As I have always expressed, ALL areas of wellness are equally important and the relationship and how much they each play off each other is usually a huge obstacle for many goals not being achieved. This certification has enhanced my knowledge on how to he...lp individuals assess and address their individual needs, in much more depth, in working towards achieving Overall Wellness. As a CHWC, it’s my job to help you help yourself!!!!! To help guide you and support you to find your internal and external motivators, navigate your obstacles, dig into a deeper understanding of yourself, discover, dream, design, and achieve!!!!!!!

April is usually a huge road bump for many in their fitness/wellness/nutrition goals. I’d like to try and help refresh for some of you losing motivation, struggling with health/injury/etc, schedule changes, and so on. Life is a crazy, messy place right now, and balancing our personal well-being has been an extreme challenge! Let’s refocus on the difference between Excuses vs. Reasons. Is your issue/situation/statement ........ -something you have control of? -something that can be modified or overcome (even if it’s not easy)? -something you can seek assistance with if you feel you can’t achieve it alone ? ***If yes to these, You’re CHOOSING an EXCUSE!!! When you are aware that you choose an excuse, the next step is to personally DIG! Find your internal and external motivators and lean on them!!! Refocus on your WHY. Figure out how you can work through or around your excuses, or if it can be eliminated completely! Is your issue/situation/statement .... -something you have zero control of? -something that would be dangerous or unhealthy to modify or change ? -something that goes against your values or morals? ***If yes to these, you have a REASON. When you have a reason, it’s important to be aware if it’s a long term obstacle...to then reassess your goals and needs, and work on finding new routes that will bypass these reasons that hinder your success. Sometimes it can be a fine line, and allowing yourself to choose and give into excuses can start a downward spiral away from your goals and needs. If you are struggling knowing the difference, or if you aren’t sure if you’re giving yourself grace or letting yourself slide, I’m here to help you figure that out! 814-541-0129
