1. I’ve kicked my workout routine back in and I’m already feeling significantly better, even 2 weeks in.

2. I have a good job, a place to live, enough to eat and I can pay my bills.

3. I have the ability to change the things I don’t like about my life - while I still have to find the motivation, there is nothing other than myself stopping me from changing these things.
