It has been so long since I have bothered with this thing. Maybe I should get the tumblr another shot!?!?!
This is so true, sometimes you have to eliminate the negative people because they just want to drag you down with them.
“One reason so few of us achieves what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular” ~Tony Robbins Lately this quote has been a great description of me. I imagine all of these things that I want to accomplish, get excited about them, lose focus, and wind up not accomplishing any of the things that I set out to accomplish. I am so tired of taking one step forward and two steps back. So how do I stay focused? I need to master some Jedi mind tricks! Ok, so maybe holding out for a visit from Yoda is not a practical tactic, but wanting to master mind tricks may have me headed in the right direction. I have been a glass half empty sort of person for so long and attempting to change this has been difficult, but it continues to be a work in progress. I am working on visualizing my goals and how they will change me and my life once they are accomplished. This has helped me to at least stay excited about the goals. The next step is to break my overall goals down into smaller and more specific, obtainable goals. This has been my downfall thus far and I am hoping my attempts to approach my goals this way will help me to remain focused. So that is my goal for today, to start breaking my goals down and writing them down. Being able to visualize the steps to achieving my goal will hopefully help me to keep moving forward.
I love this picture, strong women are beautiful….just sayin ;0)
I bought Jillian’s new book today. I cannot wait to read it. I love her!

One thing I really do not enjoy is dress shopping. Unlike any other article of clothing a dress really shows off all of your imperfections and does not fit well if you are not well fit. So needless to say after buying a dress for a wedding I have to go to I was less than pleased with the shopping experience.
Putting on the dress to actually wear and looking into the mirror was hard. I barely recognize the person that I see staring back at me in the mirror. It really made me sad. Looking back it is hard to try to find the point where things changed, where I stopped fighting for what I want. It is time to get back on track and get focused because I am honestly sick of feeling how I feel….
According to one of Newton’s many laws an object in motion remains in motion until acted on by another force. Seems simple enough right, so then why can’t this law be applied to setting life goals????
Setting a goal has never been a challenge for me. I can very easily think of something that I would like to accomplish and get working on the goal. It is extremely easy to get excited and start off strong, but then suddenly the motivation dwindles and the goal that was once so easy to set remains unaccomplished.
If I take Newton’s law for what it is then my challenge is indentifying the force that keeps derailing me from accomplishing my goals….so I guess that is what I will be up to!
In my journey to find my health and fitness niche I am currently reading this book. I am about half way through and I am learning so much. Will give a full report when I am completely finished, but as of now I would totally recommend it!
Wow, so I haven’t posted on here in months. So much for keeping up with writing and updates and everything. It seems each year that passes gets busier and busier and it is harder to keep up with the things you say you are going to do. I guess I am going to have to exert a little more effort here!
