Stop Talking About It And Be About It!

There comes a time in your life when you have to get out of your chair and make things happen.  This phrase always seems easier said then done.  But as a small business owner we some times loose who we are in what we do.  We grab food on the run, and by run I mean from job to job (not on the treadmill as we should).  We either loose sleep or don’t sleep because of work pressures and deadlines.

 

I recently found myself in a major SLUMP. I hit the proverbial wave.  I woke up one day with bags under my eyes, 50lbs over weight, no energy and creative block to beat the band.  Now some of this mental and physical clarity presented itself after a 3rd member of my family was diagnosed with the same cancer I lost my father too… However the message stands true to anyone. 

 

Often times our business and personal goals are clouded by the state of our physical and emotional health.  Whatever happened to stop and smell the roses…(Yankee has a candle for that now!).  Sometime we are forced to sit back and reevaluate our life… reset our priorities and be the change we want to see in our lives.

 

Today I just joined the gym… Started practicing what I preach by drinking 8 cups of water a day and eating healthy.  Change in all directions increases clarity, streams of innovative ideas and is emotionally + physically freeing.  Time, dedication and a plan is all you need to achieve any life goals.

 

Reach for the Sky…Your life is waiting.

I love your post...and really great for getting in action.  If/when you have a bad day and don't follow your routine, don't beat yourself up.  I say this not to be negative, just to remember we are only human, afterall, and there are days when we don't do what we say we will.  What happens in the end is we sometimes give up on those goals or dreams because we had a bad day and end at the conclusion we'll never do it, or can't do it, or some other version of that.  Just brush yourself off and get back in action.  I wish you much success!!

I'm trying to do some more positive things for me every day too.  Walking and/or exercising is one that's been blown off for way too long.

In my line of work, balence is essitial to EVERYTHING! Do ing the same thing at breakneck speed may work for racetracks. But life without rest is way too short! I say stop and smell the roses (even if you have to buy the candle).

 

Love and light,

Laura
