Going to the "Next Level" and not...

Taking a step?

That would be pretty nice, but regretfully, moving forward or to the
"Next Level" takes a bit of effort...and definitely includes taking a
step or steps.

So understanding that every move forward, or up, needs to include a
step or steps, is the first "step" in getting there.

But occasionally we have a plan or intentions to get somewhere, while
we stay motionless, and that's OK if we need to take a breather, but we
need to get back to "stepping" as soon as we are refreshed.

Because we can't get somewhere when we don't move.

Hopefully, only occasionally...

We look in the mirror, or at or lives and we are sufficiently horrified.

It's OK...it happens...it's only the results of what we have let slip.

And it's really great inspiration and motivation to take what we have
let slip, turn it into an opportunity, and bring it back...even higher
than before.

Does it hurt?

If it does - it usually means one of two things:

1. We are either doing something that is not right for our body.

2. Or we are pushing our body past it's previous "Limit".

That's the fuzzy part. When we are doing something not right for our body,
our innate alarm system rings the bell, and says we have gone too far
and damage has either occurred or will occur, if kept up.

But when we are pushing ourselves past our comfort zone in the attempt
to do what we haven't done, or taking it to the "Next level" the same
alarm bell rings.

So we just need to be mindful of what is causing the bell to ring, or
we can cause damage...or sink back into our comfort zone - both
resulting in what we don't want.
