I decided that this year was going to be about authenticity, so lets talk about one of my favorite TV shows.

Chuck.

I absolutely love this show; it’s one of my favorite on TV. But there’s one problem with this show. I get way too involved with the characters. I feel like I can relate completely with Chuck and some days it feels like I’m watching myself on TV.

I’m not entirely sure why this is, but I feel like I could be him. (Other than the hair. He’s got better hair than me.) Maybe it’s just when I’m having a bad day, but when Chuck talks about feeling like a failure, and like he hasn’t accomplished anything in his life, it’s like I’m sitting right there nodding my head. It also really pains me to see his relationship with Sarah for some reason, and I feel really sad that they can’t figure out a relationship since they both really love each other.

Yeah, I know it’s a TV show. Really, I do. But I get frustrated when I feel like I can’t accomplish anything. And there are days I feel like that. I start lots of things, and want to accomplish even more things, but when it comes right down to it, I don’t follow through and end up in the same place I started before. I made a resolution to lose weight and get in better shape, and it’s only the second week of January and I already feel like I’ve blown that with my missed trips to the gym. It’s just one example.

I’m not entirely sure how to overcome this, but I thought I would share my frustrations, and one of my favorite TV shows in the process. How about you? What are you struggling with? How do you overcome things that you’re struggling with? Or what’s you favorite TV show?
