So much of what I think about is a battle.

I overthink the simplest of things.

Things that should be a no brainier.

Things I know are the right thing to do.

Temptation strikes rough and sneaks up on you.

It contributes to the overthinking…

Bringing up flawed thoughts about things that have no merit.

The brain runs these falsehoods and tempts me into thinking about getting off track.

But not today.

I’ve been in a good spot for almost a week now.

It’s not worth jumping off course because my day’s off course.

I’m feeling good. What I’ve done before made me feel worse physically and mentally.

Tempting, but not worth losing the streak of good that I’m on.

So for today I won the battle.

I fought the thought train.

I’ve made it a week.

Now to another week, a whole month.

Hoping for the best outcome.

One heck of a summer as I want to call it.

We’re fighting the battle and winning.
