The Do Nothing Option

In my work, we have this situation where many of our clients find themselves; we call it the "Do Nothing Option."  Long story, but it's essentially just that.  They sometimes get notified but they do nothing.  Today, I also took the "Do Nothing" option.  I am on notice that I have a half marathon to run on November 20th.  But today, I did nothing about it.  I usually consider Sunday's my semi-off day.  For instance, last Sunday I did yoga.  Today, I chose the "Do Nothing" option. 

I spent time with family. 

 

 
While wonderful and amazing and one of life's most precious treasures, it won't help me get to the finish line on November 20th.  In essence, I feel guilty.  I should have elected to participate today (sorry, work pun).  I Should have chosen to participate in my training today!  And even though some days I don't physically participate, I should always mentally participate.  I didn't even make it that far today.  Two weeks in and it's only going to get harder. 


Life is a mystery.  I only know how it ends.
