When disability stands in the way of your best day ever
My body wants to push harder and harder in every workout. I try to be patient with my asthma. It closes my chest before I’m even breathing fire, before I’ve pushed hard enough to feel the burn. I often feel like asthma stands between me and success.
This is inaccurate. I could claim asthma slows my progress, but the fact is my progress is apparent and amazing despite my disability.
Today I am asking myself how I can be grateful for being forced to slow down. I wanted to RUN today instead of jog. I wanted to fly through my pull-ups and pushups without the bog of heavy air in my lungs. And my muscles were all for it, if only I could catch my breath.
There are techniques for staying in control of the breath. I will learn them. The time before asthma wears me will grow. I will get to run.
Not every day will be my best day, but I will do my best every day.
I follow all your progress hon and you are amazing!!! But it is indeed important to listen to the "signals" we receive too. :)
Good thought friend!
