What did I create in January?
My January was focused on Confidence. I think I built a tittle-bit of self-esteem. But I wish I would've done more. This next month I'm taking a cue from mom and going to start meditating or focusing my mind each morning. So that my days are more intentional. Some of the things I did this month that helped me with my confidence level are... I read through that Joyce Meyer magazine. She had some wonderful things to say that meant a lot to me. Also I stole your affirmation mom... "i look good i feel great i weight 199 pounds" I would chant this well walking to work a lot of times. I took time for my outward appearance. Even doing something as keeping my nails looking nice has really helped make me feel special. And last but not least, i got a boyfriend. I know confidence is suppose to be all about your self and loving yourself. But having a boyfriend makes a girl really feel good. Plus I think that is what helps contribute to my beauty regimen. Another thing I did this month for the betterment of myself was when i got back to work i started making wiser food choices, limiting sugar, and portion sizes. I eat more often but less at a time.
I'm really excited for this month. INSPIRATION. That's what it's all about.
What will I do to achieve my goals in February?
I will read an inspirational story. Not just about weight loss but all forms.
Each day I will take time to read a story and think about it and ask God if there is anything for me to specifically get from it.
I will start keeping a journal with me. Inspiration can strike anywhere anytime from anyone or anything.
Meditate on who I am in Christ. I have a little pamphlet that lists all the verses about what and who God says I am. And I think its due time that my mindset about myself starts to line up with my creator.
Thought that I had today...
Road blocks have a diving purpose...They make you stronger! If everything in life was all sunshine and daisies everyone would be complacent. Why work for anything if everything in my life is just okay.
Also it's God's way of saying "not here, not now". Remember He plants you your dreams and desires within you and will bring them into fruition in HIS TIME. They may not always look the way you expected but they are better then you could ever dream or imagine.
Now for today's inspirational moment...
Today i was inspired by...
Eating mindfully! Mom you're blog post really got me thinking.
Inspiration in Action...
During all my meals today I ate slowly, took smaller bites, and chewed a lot. It made me realize how much i normally just scarf down my food after like 3 bites. I also made notice of all of the foods sight, smell, touch, taste, and sound. It was a really neat thing to do. I also found that I ate wayyyyy less food. Partially bc when your so aware you realize when your full faster. But also bc i would have to run back from break.
Well thats that. Have a great night! Love ya!
