171009 - Motivation Monday - Be Your Own Damn Superhero

Two nights ago, I watched the new Wonder Woman movie and it made me reflect on the type of person I am and what I am willing to fight for. Our heroes in the film, both female and male, are headstrong and adamant about their fight for what is right. Diane (the main character) follows her heart and won't give in to the pressures/norms/expectations that others have put on her. I hope that I have the same relentlessness for those things that I'm willing to fight for.

So, ask yourself -----> How many times have you waited for someone to save you, to make a decision for you, to validate you, or to approve of you and your actions? Are you finding your value or your worth in the eyes and the company of others? Are you settled into the role of victim because it's easier? Do you know what you are fighting for in your life? 

This week, try to sweep yourself off of your own damn feet. Be your own hero and save yourself. Be aggressive in your decisions and selfish in your quest. You are worth fighting for so don't be your own enemy, there are plenty of them out there to take on. Whether it be holding on to your 4 days a week of CrossFit, getting that promotion at work, having a date night with the SO, smashing a current goal, getting enough sleep, or finding time to do your favorite activity...fight for you because no one else will do it for you and comic book characters are fictional!
