Looking for actual friends

in Introduce Yourself
I'd like to be friends with folks who have more of a "real world" type attitude. The constant "get it done!" and "crush it!" and "grind!" is just annoying. It's not realistic. No one is perpetually happy or energetic. It's okay to get tired and it's okay to take a day off, then pick it back up. Those are the kinds of friends I'd like to have.

    People say "grind"? I promise to never say that.

    Yeah, it's always something like "rise and grind"

    So many catchphrases. So little time. B)

    Just trust the process
    Be bendy in life and yoga
    You are your only limit
    Pack UP your troubles and keep them to yourself

    That awkward moment in life when you're wearing your Nikes and you just can't do it
    Rock bottom can become the solid foundation on which you rebuild your life
    You really, really want it. So you buy it and then you forget it. That includes all of that exercise equipment in your basement. ;)

    I could deal with all those, but the "Pack UP your troubles and keep them to yourself" one just bugs me. You gotta let that stuff out! It'll kill you.

    Man, I always say "You Got This!", never thought it would be annoying! I usually post in the morning about getting fired up to work out and cheer everyone on. Now I'm going to think twice about my positive mood. I have been complaining about being injured and being stuck with boring workouts until I'm better so I guess that's keepin it real?

    That always happens, most of the time I post a question on the forum it seems like it's taken wrong and I end up feeling stupid. I'm not asking questions unless it's real straight-forward anymore.

    Consider the source. ;)

    No pat phrases or cheerleading from me. Haven't got the time or the personality for that. I'm honest, knowledgeable and try to see the humour in everything.

    And everyone.

    Some days that works better than others. :D

    Well then add me because I totally get it. Just because I don't have rainbows coming out of my @$$ every single day doesn't mean I hate the world. There are times when I crush it(😆 catchphrase) and times when I feel defeated. I happily admit both. 😏

    I'd stick my hand up, but returning for about the 400th time I'll probably just fall off the wagon again anyway!
