You didn’t want to get up this morning,
Your pillow was calling.
You had so much to do,
But you lay in bed, stalling.
The dishes had to be washed,
The laundry had to get done,
You did not want to make that phone call,
You knew it would be a hard one.
Your niece was getting married,
You had to lose weight,
The cake looked so delicious,
Your diet would just have to wait.
We all have things we have to do,
That seem to never get done –
If you find yourself in this position,
You’re not the only one!
But instead of getting stuck on excuses –
Cuz, believe me, they’re easy to find,
Look for your inner motivation –
Believe in the power of your mind.
Yes, it is hard
To get out of the rut and go,
Because others have it easier –
Or is it just being a show?
So, take it step by step,
Picture yourself getting it done.
Just starting is half the battle –
If you believe in yourself, you’ve already won.
Don’t let naysayers get you down,
Believe in what you can do!
Trust your inner voice,
It’s there to pull you through.
And when the going gets tough,
As it probably will,
Don’t get stuck in the negativity –
Keep on pushing uphill.
And one day when you get to the top,
Turn around and take a look
At what you have accomplished,
And what an amazing journey you took.
If you want to go far in life,
There is only one way –
Keep pushing forward,
And believe that you’ll get there one day!
