"The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change. ~Carl Rogers"
There's lots of threads about staying motivated to do exercises. But I figured that maybe we need a "oops, too motivated" thread too. Because some of us could use this.
It's me. I'm the one who could use it. ^_^;;;
I was actually talking about this with my partners the other day, trying to figure out what to switch one of my programs for. Both (gently) reminded me that I tend to overthink and stress out about things. And may end up piling on more than I maybe should.
So here's a thread to remind ourselves (and, well, myself to be perfectly honest) that exercising isn't everything. There's the things that we exercise for. But also other parts of our lives we want to do too. And that balance is good. Any extreme, even "healthy" things, can cause problems or harm if taken too far.
I didn't really know what to put as the opening post for this. But, yeah, you're doing great. But you're allowed to do other things as well. ^_^
