It’s been a long journey.
A journey that one day I will share in more detail someday.
The first picture was taken about 6 years ago. It was this picture that made me say, that is it! I am doing this, no matter what it takes.
The second picture was 08/16 at the NJ State Championships. The first time I stepped on stage.
I have learned soooooooooo much throughout the past few years, and this is still just the beginning
what I have really been reflecting on, especially the last few weeks as things have been pretty tough preparing for this next competition.
1. Stop comparing your journey to others. We are all unique. And, the person you may be comparing yourself to most likely have been on their journey for a very long time.
2. sometimes, even if you’re doing everything perfectly, your body might not do exactly what you want it to do.
3. I am reminded to focus on, and celebrate how far I’ve come! instead of being disappointed for not being where I want to be yet.
4. I am reminded, that it is a privilege to have the ability to chase these goals, and that this is a journey to be enjoyed. It’s a process that cannot be rushed.
so this week, as I inch closer to masters nationals, I am choosing to celebrate how far I’ve come 🎉instead of fixating on where I want to be.
I am celebrating wrapping up my first season as a fit model competitor and look forward to setting goals for next season 🥳💪
