I want a healthy soul

One of my biggest struggles is that I hold myself back. I'm so scared of failure that I just don't even try. My mental health is a huge part of why am am still stuck at the same place I was back in May '07. I WANT A HEALTHY SOUL. I want to wake up every day and believe in myself. I want to accept myself for who and what I am currently because if I can do that, then I will be able to move forward. I must know and understand the truth of me now so that I will know where to start in order to succeed. Knowing where to start will help me make realistic goals and not just get frustrated that I cant currently do the things I could in peak condition.
I read a really good article in Fitness magazine about having a healthy mind. It really helped me put things into perspective and realize that I need to focus on my mind and soul in order to help my body. I am naturally a pessimist and a perfectionist without much patience. It makes for a wicked combination. I want to be able to do things perfectly right away or else I just stop trying. SO...my focus for the first three months of this year is going to my healing my soul. There are some things I am still hanging on to that are continuing to hold me back and I can't wait to break free! I'm ready to be healthy.

Hey Sherry,
I love this blogsite support. You are so right about healing your soul so you can move on and meet your goals, and making realistic goals. I think I do that a lot too, make to big of goals, and then fail and quit. I want to start running in april/may and I'll have to remember to start small. You guys are such amazing examples in your will and determination to get healthy. And you are going to make it. It's going to be awesome. I hope that you have a wonderful jorney there as well. Love and miss you tons.
