Just Show Up

How many times have you felt like not doing something you knew you should do?

So many times, I have not wanted to work out, but I showed up at the gym and I had a great workout.

So many times, I did not want to go to church, but I went anyway and heard a great sermon that strengthened my faith.

So many times, I did not want to get up with my crying child, but of course I did, and those are the times I remember the most—sitting in the dark of night cuddling with one of my babies.

The trick in life is to just show up.

It is such a shame to live your life not showing up. You miss so many opportunities, so many chances to meet people, to learn something new, to become a better version of yourself.

Just show up.
