This is about weightlifting. This is not about weightlifting. (w43)

Last week’s post really helped me frame a lot of things in a different light, and I cannot express how much it has positively affected my life right now.

If you didn’t read it, I will summarize it with a quote from my lifting coach:

Letting Go of the Result (w42)

This week, after sharing my lift videos with my online weightlifting coach, he said something I know, but tend to forget.

“How can you let go of the result and just put energy into it.”

After he said it, I let out a pretty big sigh.

I’ve learned to bring this concept into most areas of my life, but I needed the reminder. I mean, it’s similar to the “enjoy the process” concept, right? But the way he phrased it felt more powerful because I’m all about putting energy into things at the moment.

Lift-Teach-Eat (w41)

That pretty much sums up my life at the moment.

Wednesdays are probably not the best day for me to blog, because by this point in the week, I’m spent.

It’s nothing and everything. I don’t want to talk about it. Instead, I will focus on my three things.

When Life Gives You Lemons (w40)

Paint them!

I posted that on social media a couple of days ago, after doing a tutorial from my favorite art creator Andrea.Nelson.Art.

I haven’t been painting as much lately, but I have definitely painted more this year than I would have if I didn’t post my 25 Goals for 2025 back in January. I’ve also written more, started baking bread, making pasta, taking yoga more consistently, and have reduced my alcohol consumption immensely!

Overthink Much?(w39)

What am I overthinking?

EVERYTHING!

Which probably means I should write more, because I hate being stuck in my head. However, when I think about writing, I start questioning myself and my own motivations.

I’ve been in such a good place in so many ways.
