Blogging about yourself daily might seem wildly enjoyable or just plain easy but I have discovered it to be neither. After all how much can I say about whom I played, what shots were learned, and whether the match was won or lost?
Nearly 2 years ago marked the beginning of my goal to reach a healthy body weight through exercise and proper nutrition. While it seems rather obvious now, at the time I had no idea that the effects would be much more far reaching and encompass more than the pursuit of becoming fit or losing weight. What also began to change is not only how I view the world but how I interact with the people I share it with. Additionally I received a true introduction to ME, and all my carefully arranged nooks and hidden crannies; how I perceive myself is often my biggest challenge and, at times, obstacle. It isn't always pretty.
Being who I am, I am not especially compelled to bare my soul about any of this – especially in a public forum. Joking around comes easy. That being said, while I am not narcissistic enough to believe anyone other than Jim actually reads my blog regularly , I still find blogging/talking about myself daunting. However, though I don't necessarily share the sentiment today, I happen to believe being stretched past your comfort zone can be a good thing. Maybe for now it’s enough just to say, out loud, that this experiment is not all about becoming a better tennis player. Baby steps.
