Staying Motivated

Staying Motivated  

Are you having a hard time staying motivated?
Ready to quit?  
Not sure you are still interested in what you started? 
Not sure if what you started was the right thing to do?  
Just plain tired of doing what you are doing?  
Don't want to log?  
Don't want to write?
Don't want to test?
 We all get tired of the maintenance work diabetes requires.
Tired of the same old same old:
You know - like
Food
Testing
Highs
Lows
Prescriptions
Doctors
Blood work
And On And
On.
  My new move to help?
 My calendar and little book.  
What is bugging me the most?
My calendar gets told today that starting a new job was harder than expected.
I mark 50 days from today. 
My little book has the positives and negatives
BUT  I am really trying to focus on the positives.
You know what I mean
MONEY!! 
  😀
There are other positives and I need that list.
I read where doing something 50 times
can cause you feel like you are invested in that activity.
We are invested emotionally.
We are invested financially.
We are invested time-wise.
Once you have invested yourself in different ways  it is hard to walk away.
Once you look at the chart of your numbers after eating certain foods,
seeing the numbers and learning the good, bad and ugly,
there is motivation to keep logging the food
And
keeping track of your numbers which makes you test.
Win...
Win...
Win!!!
Have a great numbers day!
