NOTE: IF I DO TAKE A WEEK OFF IN THE FUTURE, ALLOW ME!

My intention was to do a part two for last week's letter which you can read here, However, I was not moved enough to talk about relationships because Twitter has rinsed them enough this week.
It’s 7:42 AM on the day of this letter's release but I was thisclose to choosing sleep over typing it. I had a very busy week, I’m mad tired, so what’s the harm if I have a week off or send it out in the evening, opposed to the morning like I usually do? Nothing right? Wrong!!

My breath is very hot while I type this and my partner who needs to proofread this is snoring next to me. I had a very intense week so I have had little to no time to produce this - this is my window. I was tempted to throw a disclaimer out and say I’m off this week because I need rest - but that wasn’t me talking. That was comfortability piping up on my behalf due to how far the newsletter has come. I know some of you are probably thinking, ‘it’s not that serious’ and I should just take the week off, but personally it is and here’s why:
-
I am a firm believer in Christ and God above. Although the thought of getting a couple more hours of sleep was enticing me physically, my spirit rejected the thought of not being disciplined enough to push through something I’ve prayed to have the means and audience to do so. The bible says ‘ For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit’ - Hebrews 12:11. The predecessor of consistency is discipline, so even though I was not up to task to write this, I can already feel the peace coming over me knowing that I did what I was supposed to.
-
Who the f*ck do I think I am? First off, it’s only the tenth letter. You would think that I’ve churned out TEN THOUSAND of these to ask for a breather. Sometimes you have to remind yourself that although you have come far, relax yourself because there’s still a distance to go. In life, always use times of resistance to build endurance.
-
My opps would LOVE to see me slow down. Literally, they would relish in the thought of me taking my foot off the gas. My biggest opp and only one that I am concerned with is the devil. Human beings are the least of my concern because it will always be and always has been me Vs me due to the devil trying to block me from my destiny.
-
You lot deserve what this says on the tin. You signed up for a weekly newsletter not a, ‘when I feel like it’ letter. Because if you unsubscribe or report me for GDPR violations for not respecting your inbox - I cannot shout.
-
Resting on your laurels is never a vibe. Just because I know I can take a break, does not mean that I should. If I want this to keep growing, I need to be consistent and not rely on past victories like a washed out 40 year old whose glory days were high school.

So even though this isn’t the longest letter, it’s a letter. Is it a good one? That is up for debate because the bottom line is that it’s a letter. It’s mostly a reminder to myself and to everyone who has something that requires consistency and discipline to push through. You will ALWAYS feel better for it. Rest is definitely important, but be honest with yourself by identifying when it’s appropriate. Because I am already at ease knowing I did what was required of me so the rest is due to be sweeter.
Thank you so much for rocking with me guys! You really are the best. Please use the hashtag #MXMMondays when sharing on socials. Let me know how you try and stay consistent or share any wins you’ve had no matter how ‘small’ because you chose to stick it out. God bless and have a great week!
Love,
Martha

No. 'As Seen On MXM' this week because there’s been no outings so there’s no drip. Giving you summer looks doesn’t make sense so wait me when the UK comes out of lockdown!
So here is a clear skin edges on swim pic instead x
