My mission in life is to not merely survive, but to thrive: and do so with passion, compassion, humor, and style. – Maya Angelou

I learned patience, perseverance, and dedication. Now I really know myself, and I know my voice. It’s a voice of pain and victory.

There is something to be said about perseverance!  Anyone who does CrossFit, if they are honest, will tell you that some days you want to quit the WOD.  But the beast within you pushes you to keep going.

You pause.

You grunt.

You Curse.

Then you go back to the WOD.  Today was one of those days.  Call me crazy, but I loved every minute of it!!  LOL!

I gotta go.  Tomorrow morning I have to get up at 5 a.m.  I should have already be asleep, but I had to post this.

TTYL.

    I had to reread this to get inspired. Dedication is the word for this day! Getting up now. I am going to exercise BEFORE I edit another book : )

      Yay!! As far as I am concerned, one of the best ways to start the day is to begin with an intense workout. I hope you enjoyed your workout!
