Seriously?!

I was so excited to have a comment today, until I translated it from it's native language. GRRR, trolls and spammers be gone.

Passing it on...

I was both surprised and excited to hear that my "giving it a year" personal experiment is breathing life into others. Well, at least one anyway. And surely there is someone else out there reading...aren't you?

Anyway, at my WW meeting, one of the other regulars shared with me that she is encouraged by my giving it a year attitude and she's adopting it.

Just think of the possibilities...we aren't locked into one or two months of drudgery with no end, but have we really given it our all. Have we poured our souls into our change?

By giving ourselves a year, we grant ourselves permission to fully embrace a new attitude or behavior, and if we "mess up", well, it's just one week out of 52, right?

So let's keep going. Let's see where we end up...where do you want to be on the other side of the next 52 weeks?

I don't believe in Co-ink-e-dinks

For me and my road there is no coincidence. I believe everything is layered upon a layer upon a, well, you get it. The past few weeks have been eye opening for me. I've been seeing how important it is to relate to others - connect with them in a way that is not my typical shallow way. And how it's not all about me. And how I really do deserve more than I'm getting (and giving away).

It started with weight loss, but now it's like ink in water. Slowly spreading to each part of my life. And I'm going to be ok. I'm giving myself permission. I'm giving myself a year.
