WOW! I hadn't realized how long it's been since I wrote a blog. I was trying to write at least one a week but somehow the time just got away from me. I feel like October has been a busy month and in a way it has. Things at work have picked up quite a bit and I am leading new processing being put in place. Not to mention I'm kicking some serious ass in the gym and honestly, I'm not being dramatic when I say that. I am really putting my all into this off-season diet and training. I know to compete at a national level I've got to up my game and that's just what I've been doing. Along with that I've been trying to work on my inner self as well. I've been reading the book "Daring Greatly" and it is really opening up my eyes to a lot of things, not only am I learning about myself but I'm looking at other people differently too. I've always been the non-judgmental type but this book is helping me learn about why others seem to so judgmental. I believe it is absolutely equally important to not only be fit physically on the outside but inside too. Anyway, that's what's been going on. I hope to begin writing once a week again, at least I'm going to try :)
