Resistance/Breakthrough

I need a breakthrough in writing regularly, like no kidding.

If we are living with passion and commitment, we will come up against resistance. I have now completed day 39 of my sixty day challenge. Day 28 and day 29 were hard, really hard.

On day 29 I was nauseous (too big a lunch) my knees hurt, my back hurt. By the end of awkward pose I was struggling with breathing. It was going to be a difficult class. But there I was, in there doing the best I can. On day 30, I had a fabulous class, and every day since then has become stronger and stronger.


On Friday night a teacher training mate of mine, Maggie Carr, was visiting from Melbourne, Australia. Maggie was teaching a class near Boston, in North Andover MA.

I have been practicing Yoga for nearly ten years, Bikram Yoga for seven years. I can easily say my Friday night class was my best class ever. And I am still feeling strong and flexible.



Fabulous!

Breakthrough is always just on the other side of a breakdown, not just in Yoga, but in Life too. The way one finds and confronts their breakdowns is through committed action.

Commitment is a state of being. It starts with a declaration: "I AM COMMITTED"!

However, commitment without action is just a story. Action makes it real. What will committed action produce?

Breakdown! Count on it. If you do not produce a breakdown in your commitment, you commitments are too small. Get bigger.

So I started this post expressing my desire for a breakthrough with my writing. Step one is make a commitment.

I am committed to posting something meaningful at least three times a week for the remainder of my 60 day challenge.

Step two, let someone significant in your life know about the commitment.



I think that's handled.
