It has been almost an entire year since I have posted on this blog. A lot has happened over the last year! I’d like to think I have been growing as a person, and I have been evolving in to the person whom I want to become. As with anything though, there has been upsContinue reading “It Has Been a Year”

My “WHY”
Everyone has a “why” in life. You may not know you have one, you may not know what yours is yet, that “why” may have changed, you may have lost it over time, BUT you do have one. This concept of having a “why” drives you to your goals, deters you away from things that don’t help push you towards your goals or dreams, help define your character, helps make up a chunk of your being. It can be powerful if you allow it to be.
The Ripple Effect
Today, I want to share something positive. Not only because everyone has been so down in the slumps lately, but because I have been happy with the changes I have been seeing within myself. Dare I say….. I am actually feeling proud of myself. I have learned that the environment that surrounds you can have a huge impact on your life and has the power to change you as a person. How did I learn this?
Self-Worthy?
Self Worth. A tricky topic because it goes deep into yourself; a scary place for people to be. Lately I have been doing some soul searching and trying to find a piece of me that I feel has been missing. I know I lack self worth, but I didn’t know how to fix that, well because, I didn’t truly understand what self worth was.
My Five Year Plan
About five years ago I had made a five year plan; a plan for where I wanted my life to be, what I wanted to have accomplished, and how my overall life would look. Honestly, if you look at my current life and then look at my visionary life I made up 5 years ago…… it wouldn’t even look similar; I felt like such a failure.
Super Bowl Food Tips
Now, for people trying to lose weight or watch their nutrition, Super Bowl Sunday can be a living nightmare. I believe that we should enjoy our weight loss journeys and not have to restrict ourselves too much, so I put together some tips for eating during the SuperBowl. This way you can still eat pretty clean without missing out on too much fun.
Battling the Mind
This week has been hard….. And it is only Wednesday. Emotionally I am a wreck; I have been arguing with myself just to crawl out of bed in the morning, can’t stay focused on my nutrition, have been avoiding all of my responsibilities, have been sleeping pretty much most of the day, etc. It is just one of those weeks where I really have to pull myself out of the weeds.
The People Around You
I want you to think about the people you hang around with, that are your support systems, your friends, family, co-workers; also think about your goals, dreams, desires. Do they help you towards your targets or are they dragging you further away? Maybe, they aren’t doing either, you are just stagnant.
Tips to a Successful Week
Sunday fun day! Lazy Sunday! Aw no, tomorrow is Monday! How about, Yay! Strategize Sunday! I think it could catch on? For most people, I know Sundays are their days to relax, clean the house, or wear pajamas all day and binge watch Netflix. (I may or may not have done this a few times….)
