Its that time of the year...everyone is hustling and bustling..one of my clients told me she was cancelling Christmas this year...
due to her work schedule.She said she actually felt relieved and it took alot of pressure off of her that she didnt have to find presents and drive for 30 minutes in a parking lot to find parking. and I begin to wonder...what was Christmas about to begin with? Was it always how early can I get up to get to this sale or How many things can I get under a $50. Well anyway after the holidays we all reflect on the past year and the year to come. So I thought Id give you some things to think about to get you ready for 2010.Lifting yourself up and continuing forward
Does it ever feel like trouble follows you around and things never go your way? Sometimes it feels like you can't buy a break and everything you try just makes things worse. Who could blame you for feeling sorry for yourself or not forgive a little self-destructive behavior? Bad idea.
The new, healthy way to spend down times is to lift yourself up and operate at a higher level. Remember that what happens to you is not who you are. It's history. It's past. Your true self takes that history and decides how to make the best possible future out of it. You have the power to keep your attitude and values from driving into the ditch along with the events in your life. From defeat, you can still emerge victorious.
And even on your worse day there are people that would love to be were you are. And in the mist of it all look around and see if you can help someone else in need...Taking the time to take your focus off you and onto someone else may be the fix you need!!
When things go wrong don't go with them.
- Elvis Presley
To be nobody but yourself--in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else-- means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.
- EE Cummings, poet
Becoming the person you want to be
Take a look at your priorities and your goals. Where did they come from? Are they the products of soul-searching, self-analysis, and careful planning? Or are they a reaction to pressures from other people around you? Did you find them within yourself or within the pages of a magazine? The answers to these questions are important because they tell you if the person you're becoming is someone you want to be.
Here's another way to look at a goal: do you want it, or do you just think you should want it? It's not easy to follow your own direction in life. But it's more possible and more fulfilling than you may think. Every priority in your life needs to justify why it's there. If you can't come up with a good reason that actually comes from YOU, maybe it doesn't belong.
Its hard to do a self analysis but all the great people that achieved great things have done so. and in the end they wouldnt have it any other way. Live your life....not someone else's.
Dedicated To Your Fitness Success as well as Being the Best you can be!!
