I hate making decisions.
When it comes to work related issues I can quickly choose the best
option. However, when it comes to
something involving myself or regular day to day things I have a tendency to
quickly shut down. You don’t believe me
ask my boyfriend. He is usually patient
with me but every once in a while the “Just make a decision Hilary” comes
out. I mention this because it took me
approximately 4 weeks to decide to start this blog. In typical Hilary fashion I kept thinking “Why
do you need a blog?” But the reason is
actually quite simple. I need the extra
motivation to keep on the path of rediscovering my inner athlete and a better
Hilary.
I started competitive swimming at the age of 5 and was a
varsity swimmer in college. Swimming has
played a huge role in my life however I have found myself avoiding jumping back
into the pool. Don’t get me wrong I love
this sport but I am a full time Swim Coach.
I spend my life molding and motivating athletes to be the best they can
be. It leaves me with little motivation
or energy to swim or even work out.
The past four weeks I have been running or working out five
days a week. I already feel better and I
want nothing more than this to continue.
My hope is that this blog gives me the extra push I need to keep on this
path. Again this is something I should
have started four weeks ago. I have
experienced some great moments but of course the fear of making a decision got
in the way. I hope I can continue
this.
