Every Friday, I scout around that wonderful place Pinterest (which I refer to fondly as Facebook on crack!) for motivation and inspiration to share.

This week, this pin popped up on my ‘timeline’ without me having to dig in at all. As I read this, I started thinking about how much we tend to think about the people around us, the influences, the one we are influenced by, the chaos, the environment, so many factors that we cannot control.

Instead of trying to fit in, instead of trying to force my way into the world order, I am going to make a conscious effort to think focus on myself. What can I do to make myself a better person, a better runner, a better athlete, a better wife, a better mother, a better friend? Once I shift the focus to myself, my abilities and what I can control, I am sure that I will find myself in my proper place in the rightful order of the world.

Connect with me during the week on other social channels for more inspiration and positive thoughts.
