Motivation

I was in an accident about 6 months ago.  I was rear ended on a pretty snowy morning.  I had no idea that I was injured.  Not for a few days anyway.  Not until a few days later when my stiffness progressed to not being able to move my neck and numbness in my fingers.  I chose to go to a chiropractor.  Mostly because I know of a good one and he was able to get me in much faster than anyone else.  For the first four months I saw him twice a week.  He was kind, but also kicked my butt on a regular basis for not taking care of myself the way I should.  I was afterall “injured”.

As the months progressed, I got much better but in the past few months I am still stiff and we haven’t gotten anywhere.  Our last session, my Chiropractor gave me the “talk”.  He told me that in order to progress any further I was going to have to get back to exercising, do a better job stretching and work out.  I mean who is he kidding.  I don’t have time for that.  I am a busy woman.  I am teaching soon.  I am setting up my own private practice and I work part time.  I also have two small children to watch and a house to clean.

Later in the day when I was talking to a client.  I was having the same talk with them.  “You need to prioritize your health,” I said to my client.  “You are worth it”.

OK Henry, I get it.
