On the rare occasions where I work out, I like to start with this song. I find it inspiring and like a good kick in the ass.
I’ve even made a ringtone out of it. It is in my head a lot.
Pat Benatar’s “All Fired Up” just rocks.
I actually love many of her songs. They make me feel powerful. Some might say, “Invicible”
But the these lyrics in “All Fired Up” really resonate.
Now I believe there comes a time
When everything just falls in line
We live an’ learn from our mistakes
The deepest cuts are healed by faith
Although I don’t necessarily adhere to traditional religious faith, I do have faith.
I have faith in people. Faith that things will work out some how, some way.
Faith in the universe and balance, if you will.
I believe those four lines very strongly. They speak to me and when I’m feeling darkest, these words can remind me of the light.

This was just the inspiration I needed today my friend. I have to remember to play the songs that inspire me right now – they can really set the mood! xo

It’s great to have songs that really speak to you. I’ve found a few recently that say exactly what I’m thinking (always better than I could have said it). I keep them on repeat all day.

I love Pat Benatar.
I do not, however, love exercising. Even though I probably should.

I don’t hear her in conjunction with exercise nearly often enough
