Between Will's school starting, everyday life, and juggling FT sessions, nutritional counseling, learning Vitabot, trying to keep the carb/protein/fat ratios right, whitening my teeth, and upcoming appointments with Dr. Nahata, Dresscode, and Indra, I am feeling like life is non-stop right now---and I love it!
I do know myself though, and I know that I need to take some time to get centered and clear my mind so that I can accomplish all the goals set for me in this extreme makeover while still being a good mom, wife, friend, volunteer, etc. When I got the call that I was one of the makeover finalists, I wanted to win so much; I started visualizing myself winning before I went to bed each night. I plan to start visualizing success in this makeover as well. Lisa recommends positive affirmations, which I've begun to write and recite daily...the premise is that if you write it and say it your mind will believe it to be true and then it will become true. Kind of like the Little Train that Could: "I think I can, I think I can" he said as he, a very small engine, tried to get up the big hill. I need to find my copy of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. My cousin's husband Will first gave me a copy and I've since given copies to several friends. It's a quick read, and one I recommend. The basis of the book has nothing to do with growing rich financially. It's more about whatever you dream you can acheive. Your acheivements will never be any bigger than what you dream, so dream BIG!
I hope you're having a great weekend :)
