Life is full of choices, and let's be real, like sometimes none of them seem particularly appealing. But here's the truth: you have to choose your hard. Getting up at 5 AM to go to the gym? Hard. Feeling uncomfortable in your own skin because you skipped yet another workout? Also hard. Taking out of the time of your relaxing Sunday to meal prep for the week ahead? Hard. Struggling to find options the day of because you're pressed for time and can't find anything to eat? also hard. Saying no to that extra slice of pizza— so hard. Battling guilt and indigestion later because you overate that slice of pizza— also hard. The thing is, life does not offer us an easy button, but it does give us the power to choose which hard to tackle. So the next time you're faced with a decision and neither option is seeming exciting or fun or fulfilling in that moment, choose your hard. Choose your path and choose victory. Ask yourself, which hard is bringing me closer to the person that I want to be?
