After 7 years, taking 1 semester off, receiving a BA in Psychology, a BS in Health Science, a minor in Social Responsibility, I had done it. I accepted my Master of Occupational Therapy in the spring of 2006. I bet you are reading this and thinking...this is not a normal post for this health and fitness blog, BUT it is part of my story.
I set out in the fall of 1999 with a dream of becoming an Occupational Therapist. I had no idea how I was going to get there but I was going to follow the steps set out by my University and believe in myself that I would get there.
I struggled.
I failed.
I quit a class or two.
I re-enrolled in those classes.
I took summer classes.
I re-focused.
I trusted the process.
I worked hard.
I believed I could.
I entered the professional phase of OT school.
I made Dean's list.
I graduated and it was all SOO worth it.
Each struggle leads to triumph, each fail leads to learning, each slip-up leads to blinders on, focus and DO IT!!
Hard things are possible. We can do hard things. Sometimes it just requires a step back to re-focus, re-evaluate and keep on, keepin' on.
This applies to so many things in life and especially to my current journey with my health and fitness goals. I know there are some women out there who can relate and I just wanted to give you a pep talk, be that person that tells you, you CAN do this! It is possible!
Are you seeking motivation to take that leap into making your health a priority? I would love to help! I love motivating others, helping them get started in their health and fitness journey and seeing them transform their physical, mental and emotional well being through fitness and nutrition!!!
