My Holiday Rant
Red & green lights.. Christmas decor everywhere, store flyers rollin in the mailbox by the loads, “Here comes Santa Claus” playing on the radio, department store or maybe even at work. It goes on and on, because Christmas is HUGE and it hits most aspects of our living for about a month or so. There’s that itch to buy everything we see in the plan to not do the “last minute shopping” we always end up doing. The smell of Christmas, egg nog and yes… the not so close family members calling and telling you their plans on when they will be visiting.
Some would say this is just all too much, over whelming maybe and even stressful. I have already overheard many people freaking out about the holidays, and how annoyed they are that there is already Christmas stuff in all the stores… and so on.
Well I Say…
JUST ENJOY IT!!
It’s a month, maybe a little more out of the whole years, and it hasn’t changed, it happens every year this way and always will. So to make the same old complaints every year is just pointless, so stop complaining about it and start embracing it. Because you know that inside it really does make you feel like a kid again, so release it and take it in as a positive. haha… besides who doesn’t love a Christmas tree, lit up at night in your living room.
Of course the Holidays can bring some sad feelings to a lot of us who have maybe lost a loved one at this time or had a bad breakup …whatever it may be. Those memories will always be there.. you can’t change that, but you can just remember the good times and the fun things you did do at Christmas with these loved ones. Unfortunately we are not meant to be here on this earth forever, so make it all the very best you can well you are alive. Let’s treat each other with the upmost respect and motivate one another always.
Ok some of you may have read my facebook status about how I can’t stand those Caravans dressed as a reindeer with the ears and the little red nose on the grill . I even saw it on a big ass truck yesterday. AHHH it made me so mad. So who the heck am I to talk about being cheerful you may say.. well those ears are ridiculous and that red nose gets wet and dirty and just hangs off that grill. Then the ears get in the way of your window access and it all just look so annoying to me. Maybe we just need a newer improved version of them and it wouldn’t be so bad, idk. But thats it.. other then that I LOVE CHRISTMAS, so I will write about it all I want and spread some Holiday cheer. Besides it’s my favourite time of year!!
That red and green everywhere is exciting and festive. The toy flyers keep the children busy flippin the pages in dreams of having everything they see… just like we all did when we were little. Then theres the music…well the cool thing about Christmas music is we actually all know the words for once, instead of murdering a song that we think we know. To me there is something warm and fuzzy about Christmas, making cards, baking our favourites and thinking of the great little token gifts we can give to our favourite people.
Ya the inlaws are visiting.. so make it a great experience. Give them the best “You” , you can and just fill them with love and joy so they leave feeling excited too and uplifted from your relationship. Everyone is in the mood to give a little more this time of year and help the people you pass in the day feel that magic that Christmas brings. All the volunteers out there, the Good-fellows, Stuff the Bus, Coats for kids and so on.. these people donate their time and its so awesome.
It’s coming to the end of 2012 .. can you believe it… 2012!!! The years are passing and what a true blessing to be here and be alive and have the freedom that we do. Let’s get excited about 2013 and start focusing on your new goals for the next new year.
Adrenaline Junkies here in Windsor, in the next few classes I am going to ask you “your goals for 2013″. I want to make a video diary of them for us to have for motivation. I will tell you this when I quit Coffee a few months back I only got through it because I put it out into the world.. like to all of you that read it.. omg How could I have cheated??? even once, and let you all down.?? ….I had this crazy amount of accountability, SO I did it and the same goes for these goals, we will all watch it and then we all will have this drive to do what we said we will do. Stay true to our word and we can all support each other. See the Fit-Life crew.. these 4 are incredible and I know a big part of what helps them to really push their drive and motivation is ALL OF US!!! Us watching, supporting…family and friends there to listen and inspire. It’s all out there and nothing will stop them. Or US, let’s kick 2013 in the butt and get it done!
So let’s put it out into the world together and really make things happen even more then we did this year. I am so proud and honoured to train each and everyone of you , if its here in windsor at class or out in the world doing my YouTube vids. I have some great things planned for 2013 and can’t wait to share all of it with you. I will continue to make workout videos for you to do right at home and share the strengths of all these amazing people that I have blogging on axfit.com. I am so thankful for them and hope to have many more people that want to blog and share their strengths and experiences with us too.
I am extremely thankful for CK. I have never been so motivated and inspired by anyone in my whole life. He is like a human I have never met before and he’s all mine! He believes in me, listens to me and complements all that I do constantly. So thankyou CK .. you are a Game Changer and Im so thankful for you.
