March Madness: Fashion Edition has been a slam dunk this year all thanks to YOU #imacheeseball ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don’t forget the championship is tonight! It’s crazy to think we’ve gone from 64 outfits down to 2 final choices! Which one do you think will win? The Natasha top or the Odette Floral Maxi? I have a feeling it’s going to be a reeeaaalllyyy close matchup. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
AND if you are like me and spending your evening watching the NCAA national championship game, who are you cheering for? I’m cheering for Texas Tech!
Be stronger than your excuses!
.
Think about this....an excuse is just a reason you appointed to NOT do something. YOU came up with that reason, that excuse. YOU can defeat it. You have the strength to say no to an excuse and yes to living the life you want. You are the only thing that is standing in your way, because guess what? You came up with the excuse in the first place.
.
One of the best ways I’ve learned live a happier life is through being active and healthy. For me though, working out and eating right has been challenging at times because of all the excuses I let control me. You can’t let excuses get in the way of living the life that you want. We all have excuses. We all have 1,000 reasons why we shouldn’t do something, and they are always easy to come up with. But once you push yourself past those excuses and show how strong you are, you won’t regret it.
.
#thehappylifechallenge for March is all about moving your body and living healthy. It can be so easy for me to decide to work out “later” or not cook a healthy meal because it will “take longer” than Taco Bell. But this month I’m taking on my excuses. I’m proving to myself that I am stronger than those excuses. That I can do hard things.
