Giving Your All - Even When Your All Ain’t Much
It’s two weeks tomorrow since I’ve been to the gym. Busy workdays, boards and teams, classes, workshops, travel and shopping – in addition to my family duties – have gobbled up my time. My house is a disaster zone. I’ve let my workout time slip.
Afterall, my workouts are like housework. It is a committment. It requires discipline. It’s work.
IT’S WORK to WORKOUT.
So, I let myself be lazy and broke my workout habit. My membership expired on the 17th and haven’t made it back to the gym to...

I’m busy. You’re busy. She’s busy. He’s busy. We’re busy. Business is busy. Kids are busy.

Tools for Taping the Mouth Shut on Your Inner Critic

Love your job?
Be positive in your relationships?
Treat yourself kindly?
Research indicates that the average person’s brain receives about 60,000 thoughts per day. And according to those researchers 80% of those messages are negative. The script or recording that plays is habitual thinking. It is as second nature to us as breathing and is an unconscious habit.
We are deeply conditioned to habitually provide a label and are unaware of our programming....

Dirty Words That Feel Good to Use
“Never trust anyone.”
“She stole everything from me.”
“He stomped on my heart.”
“They took advantage of me.”
“He was a total louse…”
Okay, okay already, I get the point! You’re the world’s nicest, sweetest kindest soul and randomly, out of the blue, with no good reason, a giant pigeon swooped down from the highest part of the tree and purposefully pooped on your party plate. Jeeze Louise - that’s too bad. Weren’t there any other picnic spots available anywhere else...
