"What Are You Waiting For?"
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Are you waiting on a lightening strike
Are you waiting for the perfect night
Are you waiting 'til the time is right?
What are you waiting for?
Don't you wanna learn to deal with fear?
Don't you wanna take the wheel and steer?
Don't you wait another minute here?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
You gotta go and reach for the top
Believe in every dream that you got
You're only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You know you gotta give it your all
And don't you be afraid if you fall
You're only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
Are you waiting for the right excuse?
Are you waiting for a sign to choose
While you're waiting it's the time you lose
What are you waiting for?
Don't you wanna spread your wings and fly?
Don't you really wanna live your life?
Don't you wanna love before you die?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
You gotta go and reach for the top
Believe in every dream that you got
You're only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You know you gotta give it your all
And don't you be afraid if you fall
You're only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
[2x]
Tell me what you're waiting for?
Show me what you're aiming for?
What you gonna save it for?
So what you really waiting for?
Everybody's gonna make mistakes
But everybody's got a choice to make
Everybody needs a leap of faith
When are you taking yours?
What are you waiting for?
You gotta go and reach for the top
Believe in every dream that you got
You're only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You know you gotta give it your all
And don't you be afraid if you fall
You're only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You gotta go and reach for the top
What are you, what are you waiting for?
Believe in every dream that you got
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You know you gotta give it your all
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You're only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
What are you, what are you?
What are you, what are you waiting for?
What are you, what are you?
What are you, what are you waiting for?
I am thanking the internet today for the lyrics to this song I shared last week. I am sharing it again and asking the question "what are YOU waiting for?".
Yesterday the topic of wearing swimmers and going to the beach or pool came up. An overwhelming number of people were saying how they did not have a cossie wearing body. I say bull dust. If you want to go to the beach or pool put your cossies on and go. Who gives a flying f#$k what anyone thinks. Not me that is for sure. You won't see me in a bikini but you will see me in cossies with boardies and usually a rashie (so I don't burn). Get out there. Enjoy. Life is too damn short to worry. Perfection is not worth the wait sometimes.
Water activities are a great form of exercise. Swimming, water walking, aqua aerobics, stand up paddle boarding etc.
I pull on my cossies every week for swimming lessons and don't give a crap what anyone thinks. Same as going to the pool or beach. Sure I could be fitter or more in shape but I refuse to let that stop me.
Don't get me wrong I am waiting for things I shouldn't like a cleaning fairy to turn up so to practise what I preach I am going to bust my hump this week doing all the little jobs which have built up into one great list of stuff to do. Because seriously what am I waiting for?? I am just going to get on and do it.
Linking up with Essentially Jess for #IBOT.
Exactly right ! This weekend I am going to tackle the boxes in K's room and get them sorted - I'm not waiting any longer for whatever it is I've been waiting for to tackle this job - I think I just keep putting it off because I know we don't have extra room to put this stuff. Maybe that means we shouldn't keep it any longer !!!!!
ReplyDeleteHave the best week !
Me xox
Life's short. Tackle it head on and don't wait for a better time. There never is a better time!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to tackle cleaning the laundry out this week. I've been procrastinating over it for too long!
I decided I didn't care about not having the perfect bikini body anymore and just put them on and took my son to the pool. It was great being able to splash around with him instead of sitting on the sideline and I hope he has fond memories of swimming with his Mummy.
ReplyDeleteLOL when I saw the name of the song I thought of the one by Gwen Stefani - which is a bit ruder - but basically the same message!
ReplyDeleteLife is short as the death of that cricketer last week shows. So enjoy it while you can!!!
Visiting today from #teamIBOT xxx
Who has a perfect bikini body? And what is perfection anyway? I'll put on a bikini if I could be bothered going swimming and I'm a long way from perfect. Just don't like getting my hair wet and having to blow dry it again.
ReplyDeleteI am waiting for that Nickelback song to get out of my head.
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting for my Miss 16 to get home from work so I can go to bed...I'm pooped!!! Great post :)
ReplyDeleteThis is THE best attitude to have - this song title reminded me of Gwen Stefani's lyrics!
ReplyDeleteI had to get in the pool to help out my preppies class do swimming lessons - I was really embarrassed so wore a big t-shirt. Ridiculous really, as if a bunch of excited 5 year old's care what a mummy helper looks like!!!
