“But Out” Reflection

I’d like to work out regularly but I lack motivation.

I’d like to spend a half hour of quiet time in the morning but I am too tired to get up earlier.

I’d like to start reading my psychology book for class but I find it boring and hard to focus.

I’d like to eat healthier but am surrounded by unhealthy food.

I’d like to travel to Germany this summer but don’t know if I can afford it.

 

I’d like to work out regularly and I lack motivation. So I will create a weekly workout schedule that incorporates yoga classes (which I enjoy) twice a week among other cardio and strength workouts.

I’d like to spend a half hour of quiet time in the morning and I am too tired to get up early. So I will go to bed earlier the night before.

I’d like to start reading my psychology book for class and I find it boring and hard to focus. So I will set aside specific time for reading and if I am successful, I will reward myself with a Netflix episode.

I’d like to eat healthier and am surrounded by unhealthy food. So I will limit myself to one treat a day.

I’d like to travel to Germany this summer and don’t know if I can afford it. So I will start saving at least half of my paychecks to pay for airfare.

“Well I use to be in sales but now I take care of my parents full time. My father has dementia and my mother suffered an aneurism back in 1995 so she’s been disabled since then. They were able to clamp it but she had a lot of blood loss to her brain. She had a massive stroke but she survived it. So, for the last 20 years you know mostly my dad’s been helping out with her but I’ve always been there to help out as much as I can. I’ve always worked full time but now it’s to the point where I’ve took over everything for them. I’m their power of attorney. I pay all the bills. I do everything for them, so now I just do this. I work for a company called CSC. We do event security for different events. For Ohio State we do football games, we do basketball games and this event here I believe is for a breast cancer sendoff tomorrow and I am just here to basically watch the platforms and make sure nobody hurts themselves. Because of this job, I can just work part time whenever I want. It’s perfect for me and I can schedule it around what I need to do for my parents.”
