MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY


THE COIN


The ground beneath you is unstable, threatening to collapse beneath you, but you have NO fear because you know that it NEEDS to for you to rise to the NEXT level of your life. Your eyes are OPEN to see the outstretched hands above you, knowing now that there ARE those who care and WANT to see you move FORWARD in your life, who want to walk WITH you through life, not because they want something from you, but because they SEE you and “get it”. They get WHO you are and understand where you have been, knowing where you are GOING, desiring to be a part of the NEW life that God is opening up and creating for you to step into.


You need no one to tell you what you want, because you suddenly REALIZED it, waking one morning to find that everything had CHANGED, that little voice in your soul whispering truths you had until now tried to deny to yourself, thinking that if you ignored them, they would go away and be less real, but now, knowing that they are NOT, nor wanting them to disappear, READY to allow them opportunity to GROW and FLOURISH in your life, the one you are stepping INTO.


You know now that you are NOT alone. You know now your HEART. You know now what you SEEK in your future. You know now that you are READY. This is YOUR time, to take a chance on something you would never have risked for before, to give yourself more room to GROW and OPEN your soul to the wonders He has waiting for you. There is no better time than NOW. LISTEN to that inner voice, ACCEPT and reach for those outstretched hands, and LET yourself live life the way you were always INTENDED to.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY


HERE, NOW

Everyone has a past. I accept that. What I truly care about is who you are and where you are going NOW, your dreams and aspirations, evolution and growth. THAT'S what interests me. The here, now, what lies ahead and moving FORWARD. ALWAYS moving forward.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

DON'T SETTLE

There comes a time in your life when you say “enough is enough”, “this is not me”, “I will not let myself live like this anymore”. Your soul and heart and mind and body have great “memory” of the discipline you “lived” in the past – one part of the past that was truly an asset, and an asset that once had, never truly lost, because the ability and “habit” is already ingrained in who you are, and no matter if it seems “lost” for a time, is always there to be found and used again. The “memory” of the lifestyle “before”, the “good”, that which allowed progression and growth – that is all there, slumbering awakening, a dull rumbling beneath your skin, like the groaning of a volcano ready to erupt. LET it out – let it loose to be YOU again.

Settling was NEVER an option – “comfort” may have been slipped into, but once realized, can no longer be allowed. Motivation for everything you want and need is there – it has just been hard to “move”, but now there can be no excuses NOT to, because there is no one but you to whom you shall eventually be accountable for what you did and didn’t do in the pursuit of your dreams and desires. Those who achieve great things did not settle – they may have been “knocked down” or out for a time, but they did not let that stop them, and on the rise back up, found “new” strength and growth that would serve them in their surge forward. Forward momentum – habits might be hard to break and make, but once made, can be made again, better than before.

Chase your dreams with a vengeance – don’t let anything stop you, any obstacles serve only as “lessons”, milestones of growth and progression, keeping your mind objective as your heart focuses on your vision and purpose. Go after what you want – you KNOW you are worthy of it, accepting of yourself and what has brought you to who and where you are now, even as you know that you cannot and will not “stay” where you are now, because you are all about becoming better on every level, being the example for yourself that you are YOUR competition, leading by example that no matter what one has faced or is facing or will face, they can always OVERCOME and CONQUER!

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

PEACE WITH THE PAST

You cannot truly move forward until you have let GO of the past. You cannot truly begin to heal until you have accepted what has happened and given yourself room and time to grieve over any loss. You cannot live fully in the present if you are still dwelling in the shadows of the past.

If you do nothing else, FORGIVE yourself. Give yourself a CHANCE. Open your eyes and clear your foggy mind so that you can break FREE from the bonds you are unconsciously placing on yourself. Give yourself the GIFT of being completely in the present.

Let yourself be here and NOW. Let your soul be CALM in this moment. Let your mind be still and know that only TRUTH now resides there. And that truth is that your spirit is at PEACE with who you are and where you are and the journey that has brought you here.

ALLOW yourself to experience life in all its wonder and glory. Allow yourself to believe that such beauty was intended for YOU. Allow yourself to breathe in the FRESH air and know that with that breath you are giving yourself the gift of starting over afresh and brand new.

Let that be your gift to YOU. A SECOND chance. A time to finally see PAST all the hurt and pain and suffering and tears. A time to let yourself BE who you are and step out into the present with arms wide open and unafraid to let the world see you. What will YOU do with your life? YOU decide.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

REMEMBER

Sometimes we allow life to get in the way, infiltrate our mind with its fear, doubt, and worries, our circumstances looking bleak instead of an opportunity for change. Are you swimming or drowning in it? Are the things that once used to make you so happy now pulling you down into the depths of despair?

When the things we love become the things that destroy us, what then? We need to REMEMBER - WHY we loved it, what it was that gave us so much joy and peace, smiles before the tears, laughter before the screaming. We need to REMEMBER, and in doing so, maybe make our burden a little lighter.

Let your memories be sweet. Let yourself remember how much you loved. Live without floundering, without sinking, feeling like every day is a battle just to stay afloat. Because all the energy you’re exerting to try and simply STAY here is draining you of energy you could be using for something ELSE.

Remember what it was like and THANK the past for HAPPENING, giving you such blessings, knowing that not all things are meant to last - and nothing ever will. Give yourself time to grieve, but allow yourself to move ON, so that you CAN “live again”.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BUILDING THE NEW

Change happens to all of us at some time or another. No one is immune from it. No one can outrun it. It affects each of us, in many different ways. One person’s change may not be like your own. That doesn’t matter. What matters is that there IS change.

So many of us spend our energies on the OLD, what we are leaving behind, “living in the past”. What is not realized is that when we do that we give what is past the POWER and “weaken” ourselves for the future. If you spend so long looking back, you do not give yourself to live in the NOW.

The best way to “deal” with change is to look FORWARD. Let the past go and step INTO the future. Focus all your time and effort on building the dream that is now before you, the future you hold in your mind, the one that might have seemed like a dream until now.

Focus on the NEW. That is the only real way you are going to have any “control”, the only true way for you to be able to lead the life you are meant to. The new is your POTENTIAL. REALIZE it and “throw away” any misconceptions you might have had about starting over.

Now is the time. Now is YOUR time. It might seem like there is “nothing” there, but there is EVERYTHING. You just have to OPEN your eyes to see it. See it and take a hold of it. Dream. Plan. Act. There is no time like the PRESENT to set in motion the events that will determine where you go from here.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

ONE MORE TIME

Human beings are weak. It’s in our nature. However, just because we are weak, does not mean that we cannot also be strong, and often our biggest weakness is attached to our greatest strength. God gives us that weakness to remind us that we are not almighty, that we are not impervious to imperfection, that we all have a role to play in the game of life, our weaknesses [and strengths] determining the purpose of our role.

We can learn a lot about ourselves from our weaknesses. What we are made of, what sort of character we have, whether or not we have what it takes to succeed and do more than simply survive this world.

We all have many flaws and weaknesses. Perhaps the greatest sin is to have no ambition, to simply exist with no purpose whatsoever, letting life pass you by. If that is the greatest sin, then the greatest weakness is in giving up on something that we dream of having, because we do not have the courage or the willpower to continue our journey towards the accomplishment of something great.

If you want to succeed, you canNOT give up! You cannot give in without a fight! You canNOT give in, PERIOD! If you want something so badly that your heart bursts with your desire and you can think of nothing else, not only is it weakness, but sin to give up on it, to let your light fade into the recedes of time.

When you feel like giving up, when all hope seems lost and the future dim, remember in your heart why you want what you want, why you have tried for so long to attain it, and draw strength from that secret well within you to KEEP GOING! PRESS ON! KEEP THE FAITH! And you will most certainly SUCCEED!

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

COMMITTMENT, POSITIVITY, AND WILLINGNESS

Life is full of struggles, challenges that force us to rise to our POTENTIAL. Some see the hardship in the challenge and give up because they find it too difficult, whilst others CRAVE the challenge and seek every way possible to use the experience to BETTER themselves.

There IS a way through every challenge, if your eyes are OPEN to it, thinking OUTSIDE the box, nurturing creativity and GROWTH in your soul. There is an OPPORTUNITY to DISCOVER new aspects of life and of yourself, gifts waiting to be ACCEPTED and OPENED with wonder.

To FIND the way through life’s challenges you have to be COMMITTED: To yourself, the goal, the dream, allowing your mind to filter away any negativity about the outcome, knowing that if you have faith it will all work out. Not always as you wanted or expected, but in a way that will only ENRICH your life, adding to the wealth of experience you ALREADY have, EXPANDING your mind and heart, and opening up your soul for even MORE blessings.

To get THROUGH life’s challenges, you need to be WILLING to walk the path before you, no matter how daunting or unknown. You have to believe in yourself and your ability to OVERCOME, ensuring POSITIVITY even when your heart might feel faint at some point in the journey. Your willingness to WORK through the obstacles thrown in front of you reveals your soul, the way you seek to conquer them and see them as stepping stones to GROWTH.

Moving through life is a FORWARD journey. You cannot grow if you stay still or move backwards. You HAVE to move forward, ALWAYS forward, focused on the FUTURE stretched before you, knowing that you have the LIMITLESS potential to create in it whatever you want it to BECOME.

COMMIT yourself to the path you have determined to walk. Be POSITIVE about your chances of success. Seek WILLINGLY the path less taken and carve your OWN path. Stride FORWARD in FAITH and BELIEVE for the BEST.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO FOR YOU

Life is always going to be full of things that we have no control over, no matter how much we wish in our hearts that it would change, or that people would change, and SEE us deep inside our soul for who we are and could be, and understand and appreciate what we have to give and offer. Sometimes the people we love the most are the people who we should NOT even care about, the people we should let GO of, because they are not the people who are THERE walking beside us through life, whether by some circumstances they cannot control even if they want to, or they simply don’t care.

The love I loved the most I lost before I even had a real chance to have it and know what it was like, taken from me by the one I loved the most because they did not have the courage or the strength in them to believe in something that could have been the most beautiful thing that life might ever have chanced them with. And even though I was ready to reach out my hand and step into that chance, I was pushed back and thrown down, cast away and let fall like a star falls from the sky in the deepest dark of night, a bright flash of light fading from existence, so fast that I wonder if anyone even noticed it was gone.

Some of the deepest sorrows we hold close when we need to let them GO. We hold onto memories and hope and faith when we should long have moved ON. We let it eat away at our souls, unconsciously destroying ourselves from WITHIN, until we are but shadows haunting this world with our presence, because we are no longer fully alive, lost and wandering, not wanting to find our way, because our way is gone from us and all that is left is the darkness that consumes what is left of our hearts, which are exhausted and just want to STOP and sleep and never wake up.

But that is not living, only merely existing and if we merely exist we may as well BE dead. Even though it hurts more than anything else ever might, we HAVE to open our eyes and realize what we are doing to ourselves, that life was NOT meant to be lived in darkness, our hearts not meant to lose hope, our souls not meant to be cast from the heavens into the pits of hell, not meant to STOP living, nor stop in our journey at all. We are meant to keep MOVING, moving FORWARD, because just because one person does not care enough about our soul does not mean that WE should give up on it as well.

We MUST keep moving forward, even if we don’t want to. We MUST do it for ourselves, because we know deep down in our innermost core that it is the BEST thing to do. It may take time as you grieve, to come out of the shadows, a mere whisper of life as you cautiously step back into the journey that is waiting for you. DON’T let someone else compromise your life and how it should be lived. Don’t let them take away your joy, your happiness, your ability to think and feel and wonder. Even if they are the best thing that could have ever happened to you, if they cause you to be like this, then they truly are NOT, and you must do what you know in your heart you NEED to do for YOU to LIVE your life the way you were MEANT to.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

EYES OPEN, MOVING FORWARD

Even if you have NO idea what the NEXT step in your life is, CONTINUE on your journey, one foot in front of the other, the only way OPEN to you – FORWARD. Keep your forward MOMENTUM, your eyes CONSTANTLY open, observing life around you as you pass it by or entangle in it, for while YOU may not know what you are supposed to be doing next, SOMEONE does.

Someone is watching OVER you, observing YOU, the way you walk, how you interact with the life around you, the people, the ripples you make, difference you create, and they are planning the next step of your journey, even if you might already be starting to do that yourself. You might not know what you’re supposed to be doing, but you are forming an idea, a notion, a PLAN, because everything that happens to you MEANS something, a piece of the puzzle in the fabric of the masterpiece that makes up your life’s tapestry.

You begin to see that what you NEED is right there in front of you if you allow yourself to think OUTSIDE the normal scope of vision used by man. The tools you need to accomplish your tasks are hidden, but where your INSTINCT knows how to FIND them, when you truly need them and are prepared to give in to your intuition and that something else greater inside you. The words you LEARN to form and express your need with, grasping from the life surrounding you, RESPONDING to it as you ACT with and in it. Your eyes are OPEN, physically, psychologically, and spiritually, all aspects of your psyche and self in TUNE with one another.

No matter WHAT happens, create that HARMONY withIN yourself and see life OPEN up in more ways than you could ever have imagined, paths spread before you in a choice of myriad journeys, opportunities given that might never before have been possible, and all of it READY for you to just step INTO, taking the chance, RISKING all you are and have now for something far GREATER, a PROMISE of the FUTURE and the person you are MEANT to BE.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

REBORN

Sometimes we need to die in order to know what it truly means to live. Sometimes we need to forget our lives before and just let ourselves live in the now. Sometimes we need to break down the walls of everything we were and create a new being. Sometimes we must experience the greatest happiness and have it torn from us and suffer, so that we can see the truth in the destruction and pain, and give ourselves a real chance to make our world right with a brand new beginning.

Dying does not always mean leaving everything you were behind. You will never be completely different, even as you are not the same person that entered the flames. Dying means burning away the weakness and developing the strength, finding new strength and sharpening the edges of the resolve that helped you survive so long. The difference will be in what the world sees, their eyes suddenly open as realization that you have always been what you said you were, but now you will not hide any part of it.

Dying is valuing yourself enough to take a stand, to admit you’re not invincible, not infallible, not a machine, and knowing when enough is enough and it’s time to start taking care of you, instead of just always pushing through and taking on so much you know there will eventually come a breaking point. Dying is reaching that breaking point and letting it go. It is letting yourself be broken, but not accepting such a state, putting yourself back together with wisdom alongside strength, so it does not happen again.

Dying means letting go of anything that might have held you back. It is finding complete acceptance in all that you are, all aspects of light and dark in your soul and now, instead of the darkness keeping you alive, choosing to let your light be the source of what keeps you going. It is embracing the woman who has long hidden inside the warrior’s armour, letting your heart be seen even as you still keep it locked up and only precious few inside, those rare true souls who truly cherish and understand it.

Dying is making one sacrifice for another. The sacrifice you make though you know will be worth it, for each evolution of you tears away the layers that were once a cold, emotionless machine who chose to be a rock island in the world, revealing the true heart that has been buried so deep for so long, breathing new life into it. Terminator to Warrior to Angel, saved by grace and reborn by fire, stronger and wiser and finding the beauty in the beast, walking forward without looking back.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

PEACE WITH THE PAST

You cannot truly move forward until you have let GO of the past. You cannot truly begin to heal until you have accepted what has happened and given yourself room and time to grieve over any loss. You cannot live fully in the present if you are still dwelling in the shadows of the past.

If you do nothing else, FORGIVE yourself. Give yourself a CHANCE. Open your eyes and clear your foggy mind so that you can break FREE from the bonds you are unconsciously placing on yourself. Give yourself the GIFT of being completely in the present.

Let yourself be here and NOW. Let your soul be CALM in this moment. Let your mind be still and know that only TRUTH now resides there. And that truth is that your spirit is at PEACE with who you are and where you are and the journey that has brought you here.

ALLOW yourself to experience life in all its wonder and glory. Allow yourself to believe that such beauty was intended for YOU. Allow yourself to breathe in the FRESH air and know that with that breath you are giving yourself the gift of starting over afresh and brand new.

Let that be your gift to YOU. A SECOND chance. A time to finally see PAST all the hurt and pain and suffering and tears. A time to let yourself BE who you are and step out into the present with arms wide open and unafraid to let the world see you. What will YOU do with your life? YOU decide.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

DONE DESPITE FEELING FEAR

No one can be strong all of the time. No one never NOT experiences fear and even the strongest individual you know has felt fear at SOME point in their life  – whether heart-clenching fear or barely the faint whisper of it. Part of what MAKES them strong is feeling the fear but surging FORWARD in spite of it, following the path they know in their heart is MEANT for them, having FAITH that every footstep will make a DIFFERENCE, each stride made with PURPOSE, even if they are not quite sure where the path they are treading will eventually lead.

Fear can bring out aspects of our character we might not have realized were there, surprised that such qualities we own. Good, bad, masks, real, fear fights an interesting battle in our hearts and minds, creating an environment to either blossom or fall. Having the courage to CONTINUE forward when everything seems against you, uncertain when the tunnel will filter light into the darkness is a mark of strength and courage. In that tunnel you find your soul, face yourself, your demons versus your angels, and discover your TRUE nature.

It’s ok to have weak moments. It’s ok to feel fear. It’s ok to be HUMAN. It’s NOT ok to let those moments and that fear CONTROL you and dictate what you feel you are able to do, because you ALWAYS have the POWER to make a different reality for yourself, if you have but the courage and determination to take that first step out into UNKNOWN territory and run towards the BRILLIANT future WAITING for you, the one who had FAITH and took the plunge, ignoring the voices of doubt and disillusion, knowing that God guards His precious.

Have faith in Him. Have faith in YOURSELF. Feel the fear and DO it anyway. FIND YOUR STERNGTH.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

LET GO OF FEAR

For one to change, one must GROW. And for one to grow, one must let GO of that which might hold them back. And that which might hold one back is most often FEAR.

Fear of what is to come. Fear of the unknown. Fear of letting go of a “comfort zone”. Fear of being vulnerable. Fear of being hurt. Fear of pain.

Growth IS painful. Growth is often made in the most INTENSE of situations, many times not ones we might have CHOSEN, but that we NEED. Growth HAS to happen in order for our lives to move FORWARD.

And we ALWAYS want to be moving forward. Life is not living if we are at a standstill, stagnant and immobilized. Life is simply “existing” then, and life is NOT for merely existing.

Life is for LIVING. Living with passion and exuberance. Living without limits ad boundaries on our dreams and aspirations. Living as high as we can for as long as we can. Living and GROWING.

Growing into the person we were always INTENDED to be. And for that to happen, we MUST allow CHANGE. We MUST WELCOME growth. We must LET GO of any fear we have and LIVE.

2013 | Day 31: APPRECIATE EVERY MOMENT

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

APPRECIATE EVERY MOMENT

EVERY single moment in your life is SIGNIFICANT. There is SOMEthing to be learnt from EVERYthing you experience, no matter how small or large it is. Sometimes the BIGGEST life lessons we learn come from the SMALLEST things, events that we might not even recognize at the time.

Life throws things at us we are not always PREPARED for. It knocks us down when we LEAST expect it. It takes the wind from our sails just when we thought we were sailing on SMOOTH seas. It does this so that He can see how we RESPOND. He wants to see what we are made OF.

There is a LESSON in EVERY experience we go through, every PERSON we encounter on our journey of life, every time we FALL down, every time we make a MISTAKE, every time we get HURT and feel like we will break, every time we come to a crossroads and realize that we ARE only human and cannot do everything on our OWN. The lesson might be one in HUMILITY, ACCEPTANCE, GRATITUDE, or something else, but no matter WHAT it is, it is VALUABLE in our mission to become the BEST that we can possibly be.

You might not always UNDERSTAND it at the time. You might not always ACKNOWLEDGE what is happening. Just remember that EVERYthing happens for a REASON and in time, if not now, you will SEE that reason and KNOW it.

APPRECIATE life. APPRECIATE every single moment that you have on this earth. APPRECIATE every breath you take, every morning you wake to a new day and are given another chance to “get it right”. APPRECIATE those around you and the love that you have. APPRECIATE that you are special to HIM and He values you. APPRECIATE and you’d be surprised at the way your life can CHANGE.

2013 | Day 14: BEGIN IT

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BEGIN IT

You KNOW what you want. You HAVE done it before, many times over. You have been in that place and know what it feels like. You know what to do to get there. You know that NOTHING is impossible. You know that it will be hard in starting, but it will be worth EVERY second of frustration and pain and sacrifice. You know your limits and REFUSE to accept them, determined to push them FURTHER than you ever have before. You know what it will take, not backing down from the CHALLENGE. You know that you want BETTER than what you were or ever had, and you know that you have within you whatever it will take to get it done. You know that you CAN do it. You know and once you get there, you are NEVER going to return to the place from whence you now begin. You are setting the bar HIGHER than ever before, because time stops for no one, and every day is another day gone, another chance at something GREATER, requiring you to be BETTER, setting the EXAMPLE without excuses. You know, so now it is time to DO. BEGIN again your journey to a NEW “final” destination, making sure there are NO stops or backtracks along the path this time, for there is NO time for anything but FORWARD progression and CONSTANT climbing to reach the stars.

2013 | Day 9: LET IT GO

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

LET IT GO

There are always going to be things in your life that you cannNOT control. You can, however, control how you RESPOND to them. Sometimes the SHOCK of an event or circumstance can throw you off kilter, but you can always bring yourself back to BALANCE. Even if that something you thought long ago let go of, gone from your life, unable to affect you anymore.

When you discover that what you thought your soul had released can STILL elicit intense emotion, it does not mean that you have NOT let go of it. It just means that you are HUMAN. Maybe you have not truly allowed yourself the time to grieve for what you let go OF. Maybe you need to make a DAILY habit of letting go, giving it up to God for as long as it takes for your soul to have peace again.

Sometimes you need to take a deep breath and just BREATHE. Focus on your beating heart, calming your racing thoughts, bringing yourself back to a STILLNESS of mind. Give your soul room to COMPLETE whatever process it must in order to have CLOSURE. Accept that not everything is easy to let go of merely because you desire to.

Understand that life, the people and events that shape us, cannot so easily be forgotten and buried deep within the recesses of our soul, only to be remembered as times in which we underwent great change and personal growth. Sometimes that which plays such a huge role in whom we are lingers longer than it should, because it is important and deserves the respect due its significance.

When you find yourself in a place your soul never desired to be again, a place you thought you had left behind, despite the momentum that it propelled you into, you have to DECIDE to let go. Again, over and over if you have to. But you MUST let go. Take your hands off the steering wheel and have faith, trusting that He will drive you true, where you need to be and with whom.

2012 | Day 366: A NEW YEAR

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

A NEW YEAR

The end of an era is coming to a CLOSE. It is time for a New Year to begin – to TURN the page on this chapter of life and start AFRESH. It is a time to see the ENDLESS possibilities stretched before you, the miracles just waiting for you to bring them ABOUT, the accomplishments with YOUR name already on them.

It is a New Year – a time of INFINITE possibilities and wonder, when you can RECREATE yourself and start over. It is time to begin to become the person you ALWAYS wanted to be, because you HAVE the power to, everything within you to be who you are MEANT to be. It is time to DECIDE who you ARE.

A New Year gives you opportunity to set out everything BEFORE you – before it is already half-way over and you wonder where the time has gone. It allows you to design a BLUEPRINT of what you want your life to BE and where you want it to GO. It shows you what needs to be done, to think about what TRULY matters.

A New Year is a time of CELEBRATION – passing of the old as you step INTO the new. It is a time to take hold of your destiny and determine your FUTURE, set rolling the ACTIONS that will have a domino effect in your life for either positive or negative. Choose to move FORWARD and become BETTER.

2012 | Day 345: TAKE CARE OF YOU

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

TAKE CARE OF YOU

If you do not take care of YOURSELF, you will be in no shape to care take of anyone ELSE. It’s time to take care of YOU, so that you can give your BEST to the world.

No more letting yourself go, even though you have been HAPPY the last few weeks. No more “I can get away with it”, because it has been shown that you actually cannot any longer if you are not TRAINING. No more time off from training, even if your body HAS needed it. No more allowing yourself to sleep in, even though your body has welcomed the REST. No more comfort, even if you have enjoyed it for the FIRST time in your life. You may have been happy and enjoyed it, and it may have helped you in SOME way, but it has NOT been conducive to your health and well-being. It has NOT been kind to you and is NOT “taking care” of yourself.

NO MORE letting yourself go! No more COMPLACENCY! No more “It’ll be ok when I get back on track” attitude. It’s “back on track” NOW and NO going BACK! No more backwards motion! Only FORWARD!

You were doing just fine before. You were in a good place, comfortable physically, and you WILL be again. You were finally SATISFIED with where you were and now it is all gone, but you CAN AND WILL be in that state again. Only this time you will be BETTER! AND you will be HAPPY, able to allow yourself to ENJOY life and MAINTAIN that satisfaction [in your body] withOUT any complacency, striding only FORWARD with your life, because the future holds so much for you!
