It’s been 2 weeks since my first post, and without a doubt, the hardest. Most days were clouded with “How am I going to do this?” But I kept forcing myself to say just take 1 more step forward than think about the next. I focused on fitness and reading. Fitness came easy; the physical pain numbed the emotional. Reading was harder because my mind drifted to the past, shame, and fear. I cried daily until 2 days ago, often shaking with anxiety. Friends and family helped, but most of the time it was just me and my thoughts. Books I read: Relentless (Grover), Can’t Hurt Me (Goggins), Atomic Habits (Clear) and now I’m hooked and have 30 more lined up. I improved my running from 1.7 to 2.6 miles, hit the gym 5x a week, and built a small foundation of doing more each day. Some days were harder, but I’m improving. I registered for fall classes, step one toward law school. And lastly traded my way from $200 to $3,000. 🙂‍↕️

One of the best strategies to stay committed and organized that I’ve recently discovered was to have a hand written list of your schedule. It’s simple, yet very effective for me.
