Motivational Monday - Getting back on track

Everybody slips sometimes. Your calm self would have reminded you self-hate, guilt, and succumbing to your own mistakes are not your best course of action. But, the grey lenses of stress, depression, and anxiety may have you seeing otherwise. The best case scenario is to never slip back, but having a plan to pull you through just in case is equally important to constructing a stable routine.

Mistakes happen, but if we refuse to accept them and focus on getting back on track, they begin to burgeon into issues bigger than mistakes. Experience taught me how hopeless and scary things may seem at times, but if we can motivate ourselves to walk, even trudge, back on track, we will only have muscles to prove that from our moment of weaknesses, we emerged stronger.

So this week, I want to ask: How do you get back on track if you slip off of it? Do you have a routine? What are tips or lessons you've gathered?
