Happy New Year!

I, along with most of the world today, have high hopes for 2011. I have my goals in place and my New Year resolutions ready and waiting to be accomplished.

What causes us to lose focus? We don’t always get what we want, but we DO get what we expect and on what we continually put our focus. So, if we were somehow able to keep our expectations and focus on those same things that we are most likely focused on today, wouldn’t we get what we want?

One of my goals for this year is to help you to stay motivated and inspired to be your best and to live your dreams. I know that the best way to help myself is to help others. I know that what I sow, I will reap and what I give, I will get. So, if I’m continuously giving those things I want and focusing on those things I want and helping others with those things I want for myself, 2011 will HAVE to be a good year.

Getting in Shape Update

Posted on 11/21/2009 by

I don’t know if you are tired of reading posts about my getting in shape, but I’m getting tired of writing them. This will be my last one – at least for a very long while. I don’t want to focus on it anymore since it’s a new habit. It’s not like I focus on brushing my teeth every day even though I DO brush my teeth every day. Brushing my teeth and wellness are both just a part of my morning routine now.

Getting in Shape Update

Posted on 11/15/2009 by

I haven’t given you an update lately. I hope you assumed that no news is good news and didn’t think I had given up :)

I haven’t posted because I’m really trying to make this just something that I do and not make it an issue.

I’ve continued to do the yoga 5 days each week. I am REALLY enjoying the yoga once I get started. I still dread it a bit until I get started, but the degree of dread is slowly going down. I do feel better when I’m done and I think it helps me feel better all day long. I’m trying to remind myself of that when I’m laying in bed dreading getting up because I know I have to face Rodney Yee again with those sometimes impossible poses he seems to throw at me before I’ve had my coffee. Actually, I’m falling in love with him and dreading him less and less :) Continue reading →

I’ve learned that I should do, observe, correct without any emotion. This is not with just eating, but with anything I’m trying to master. I first do whatever it is I’m trying to get better at. Then I observe how I did without emotion. Did I miss the mark? Did I get close to where I want to be? Did I do part of it wrong and get the other part right? I evaluate my attempt this time. And then I make corrections. What can I do differently next time to make it work even better? What did I do right that I should continue to do next time? You get the idea. By taking the emotion out and just doing it, observing how well I did, and then correcting, I tend to get a little better each time. That’s much better than beating myself up about it.
