Don't be a JERK and just say NO

I dropped the ball.
​Unfortunately, when I drop the ball … I tend to trip and drop a few more. Then what was a simple mishap is now epic. This could all be avoided if I had simply just said the following word: 
"No."
This is not even about saying no to others. It is saying no to myself. It is about me facing the fact that I have limitations. It is about reminding myself to choose quality over quantity. 
So, don't be a jerk and just say NO.

Borrowing Belief to Kickstart Your Own

12 years ago, I mentioned to my husband the idea of returning to my aquatics career. I remember the moment clearly. The words "I want to get back to the pool and develop a fitness career" were said out loud before I could think! A fanciful daydream shared with my life partner after a day of changing diapers, wiping little noses and cleaning up after my home daycare. 
My husband interpreted the conversation differently. He went out and purchased swim tickets. He believed in me and gave me his steadfast support. 
He gave me so many tickets that I still had a hand full left 12 years later. 
Thank goodness. 
The last time I was swimming regularly was just before my mom passed away. Then COVID closed the pool. Depression robbed me of my motivation. My swim bag was pushed to back of my office and forgotten. 
Then one day, after months of hard work climbing out of the deep depression well, I was ready to get back to my swim routine. Pulling out my wallet, I found the last few swim tickets. The power of Derek's belief in me still radiated from them.

    Rather than experience this aging crisis alone ... I am inviting you to join in on the fun! I am on my way to 50 years of age. As I journey towards that 50th birthday, I will share my daily thoughts, triumphs, and disappointments. Don't worry it is not going to be all that good or polished - just honest, raw, and perhaps a bit of a train wreck.
    Why share? Good question! In case there is someone out there also struggling with aging and would enjoy a laugh and connection. I assure you there will be no preaching. You will most likely not gain any useful tips - mmmm, maybe on what NOT TO DO.
    Enjoy
