Be yourself! Make changes!

I saw a quote today and immediately thought of how I tell my girls to CHOOSE how to respond to people, comments, situations in life… Trust me, it helps keep you sane, or at least it does for me.

Be Yourself, but first Know Yourself

Then I thought about the quote some more and realized it was on a much broader scale and scope than I thought. Here it is:

You are the way you are because that’s the way you want to be.
If you really wanted to be any different, you would be in the process of changing right now.

Stop and think about it for the next few seconds or minutes.

Now, what did it mean to you? Are you happy with your health, weight, job, spouse, children and life in general?

Take Action Tuesday

I have a lot of changing to do and I am declaring today “Take action Tuesday!” Time to get busy changing or accept life as-is (which is a choice that most people make without ever realizing they even made the choice)

Here are some of the things I CHOSE to do today:

1. This article – It has been a year since I’ve posted here. Sad.
2. Exercise – Went to the gym, lifted heavy stuff which I do every day, ran 2 miles which I do, well, never… Came home tired, but energized!
3. Food challenge – Decided to make good choices on food all day. Made it all day even with late work and kids practices. Good Choice.

What are you going to CHOOSE today? Take Action! See you here tomorrow.
