Moderation
Moderation means, "restraint, avoidance of extremes or excesses, temperance".
I {sometimes} get these crazy ideas in my head that I have to run in the morning, walk in the afternoon, and then crossfit in the evenings... I make plans to run 5 miles a day. I make plans to do 10 unbroken pull ups {when I can't even do one}. I make plans, plans, plans... and then guess what I do? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!
I get completely overwhelmed by my plans that I end up doing NOTHING!!! Ya'll this is bad! This is not moderation. This is not healthy living.
Now, I'll be the first to admit that I'm {a crazy girl} regarding these issues. But I am so thankful that God is showing me to be moderate with my exercise. He's showing me that I am not a fitness competitor; I am Amy. He is helping me get a healthy perspective on exercise. Instead of making plans to do {3-a-day workouts} I will simply focus on my running plan. I would love to go to Crossfit and be a {success story} someday - but right now I am not ready. Right now, I am learning moderation. Right now, I am learning obedience. Right now, all I can do is focus on my running plan and let that be enough. I will learn to exercise not too much and not too little...
...STAY TUNED FOR MORE !
