Hello anyone or everyone
I'm starting lesson 5 tomorrow. I'm a little slow in the eating right, dropping coffee, and starting to exercise and getting enough rest. Well needles to say I just got to do it. It's weird but sense I started the program it seems I�m doing more of everything I need to stop or start. have had a lot more stressful events in my life lately. All the more reason for me to take better care of myself. I just get thrown for a loop and than I don�t do what I should do OH O {SHOULD} in this case it is a should that I should do! One part of me feels like I'm too slow and the other part is unfountuly I guess panicking. My brain is going a million miles an hour. So what do I do in order to get something done I drink a ton of coffee the sad thing is I don't get much done because my brain stars spinning and than I zone out feel guilty all I want to do sometimes is sleep. I need my rest I'm not getting enough that�s for sure my life events keep me from resting. I ask my self I'm I sabatoshing my self? I don't think I am it just sometimes feels like it. I feel I'm cheating my husband and children and most of all my self of well every thing. I don't want to get sick. I know what I need to do I just got to do it. I'm afraid this sounds over done but I really believe for my self it's a matter of life or death and I really want to live for my family and my self. I blew it so much lately I can't even bare to write it down in my daily food chart from lesson 4. Ok Ok now I hear my self saying this is not positive self talk. However it is true. So now to turn this around into a positive. Give me some time it's hard. I 'm capable of doing this to start with I will end my day healthier than I started I will go to bed a little earlier than I have been, I will relax in the tub, pray, journal, and use my relaxing tape. So here�s to a new an improved me. Time to stop procrastinating and get healthier. I know I will feel better. It's not too late. I'm writing a lot I know if nothing else it's making me aware of what I need to do! What I all ready know. It's time to get it done. Thank God for giving me these words! GOD BLESS ALL "heres to digging in and pushing forward" |

Frosty,
How about this: "I don't do what I want to do" ?? It's obvious to me that you want to change not because you should but just because you want it for yourself!! Begin making changes slowly. Change can be difficult and when you talk to yourself say " I WANT " VS " I SHOULD"... I had a similar problem with saying "I have to..." and therefore changed that to "I want to... it really lets the pressure off and makes you realize that you don't "HAVE" to do anything. It's a choice you make for yourself simply because you WANT to! Everyday is a new day...so ask yourself what you can do today to make a difference in your life.. One day at a time OK ? |

Thanks sunset34
It's sooo late again. I have been getting a late start a lot, so I'm very tired. I just wanted to say thanks for the great tip. It is true. It is something I want to do!!! This is a good way of working my goals. Forget those darn shoulds. I really do want to do things differently!!! Thanks again for your thoughtful insight. Just a simple change of words can make a difference. Thanks again and God Bless |
