Unexpected Life

If someone told me when I was a kid that at 24 years old I would be where I am at today I would have been like you are crazy. When I was a kid I dreamed big like every other kid I wanted to be an actress, I wanted to be a doctor, I wanted to be so rich! But this is not reality ... My reality is very different. As I turned 24 last week I reflected on the past couple years and how I have changed into the women I have become. This past year especially I have really turned a corner. There are three things that have really improved the person I have become.... 1)New Friends 2) CrossFit 3)My mental toughness ..

New Friends
Words can not describe what friends have done for me in the past. They have helped me through two of the hardest times in my life when I was in college and I had friends in law school that helped. BUT in CrossFit I have made the best of friends. Some of the people that have really made me become happy with who I am are my friends from CrossFit. Last year, I broke up with my boyfriend and I was a wreck, I had completely lost myself in him and didn't know what to do, I quit everything, I wasnt mentally there at school, all I wanted to do was just sleep and eat. A friend reached out and asked why I wasn't going to CrossFit so I decided to return. There I met my great friend Liz who was so positive and happy and loved life. From then on I realized that there were so many friends who have impacted me from Linds, Erica, Erica, Kristan, Andrew, Steve, Alec, Ali .... But there was another person who really changed my life and he probably doesn't know it. Ron, my trainer came into my world in May I still was bitter towards guy didn't trust men... And I started training with him .. it helps that he was cute to look at but I still didnt trust guys, so we started talking as the months went on and I started talking to him about other things than CrossFit I felt comfortable finally being able to be like not every guy sucks at life. Ron helped me get me over my ex and although he will never know it, that was a huge thing for me... So yes these new friends have just impacted my life and made me a positive person.

CrossFit
I think everyone knows how I feel about CrossFit. All my posts are about it. I feel strong I feel sexy I feel beautiful ... Yup I am going to say it I FEEL LIKE A BADASS :) This is a lifestyle that improves every aspect of your life.

Mental Toughness
A year ago I would say I didn't believe in myself I was dependent on people I wasn't happy. But because of CrossFit I built up my mental toughness, I came into a WOD and was like already giving up! But now I walk in a gym and I am like how am I going to rock it !!

This is my unexpected life ... And I am happy with it. I am young and I will find my footing but for now my unexpected life is the best life I could want. Live with no regrets live with all your heart and that is best life!
