Tim's P90X2 Journey

Don’t Beat Yourself Up

I mentioned that last week I missed a day. I ended up doing Plyocide on Sunday to make it up. That’s the beauty of this thing.

Sometimes people will start a program or a process with the best of intentions. But when they make their first mistake or miss something, it starts the beginning of the end. So many people think: “If I can’t do it perfect, I won’t do it at all.”

Another thing I’ve caught myself doing is to allow one mistake to lead to another. I miss one workout and then another and then another… Pretty soon, I’ve let a week go by. I allow one mistake to create momentum in the wrong direction.

In the midst of this whole P90X2 journey, I’m finding that I need to take the process/program seriously. But I don’t need to take myself seriously. I mean, I’m going to blow it. There are some moves that I will continue to struggle with. But I won’t let it get me down…or make me quit.

Today is Day 24. Not many people can say that about P90X2 at this point.
