I was thinking about challenges the other day, and why I have never been able to succeed at one. I start off with high hopes, plenty of motivation and a desire to do well, but eventually down the road, my motivations sputters and eventually comes to a grinding halt.
It’s not like I’m not competitive – just ask any of my siblings when we’re playing board games. But for some reason, even though my competitiveness springs into play, it’s not enough to withstand that little craving voice that’s constantly lurking in my head.
So no challenges for now. I’ll just keep plugging along and try to remain stable. You know – as I wrote that, it occurred to me that maybe that’s why challenges and I don’t mix. I do best when my diet and exercise remain steady – no ups and downs, no deviations off course. Maybe the challenge is enough of a deviation from that steady course that it throws me off. Hmmmm….something to think about.
