I can only be the best version of me (and other ways to get my ass out of bed)

I find it a little disheartening that sometimes the only way I can get my feet out the door and to the gym is to go on Facebook and stalk all the pretty girls who are blowing up my newsfeed with their gorgeous faces in pictures. I feel so awful about myself that I decided to do something about it and go work out. This is messed up right? On the bright side, at least it’s productive.

There’s a quote that I always find on Pinterest that says don’t compare your everyday life to someone else’s highlight reel. As good of information this is, it’s hard not to compare yourself with every click of someone’s Facebook page.

The way I see it, there are two options.
1.    I could stop going on Facebook. But I don’t know how else to waste precious time (just kidding, yes I do) or
2.    Instead of being motivated by seeing a lack of a quality in myself when I see a glimpse into other people’s lives, maybe I should just be the best version of me.


This is elementary at best Watson, but it’s a lesson I constantly forget.
