Sometimes we want the perfect person in our lives–there is no such thing. It’s better to want the perfect person for you–the person who will challenge you, make you face your past or demons. The person who makes you feel good about yourself. The person who lifts you up and makes you want to be better. The person who, though not perfect, will love you in spite of all your imperfections.

Know When It’s Time To…

Today’s Challenge: Know when it’s time to let go.

leaves holding on

On my walk with my pug I noticed this tree. All the leaves were gone except these two beautiful red-orange leaves still hanging on… It made me think about life and all the ways we hold on tight even when, especially when, it’s time to let go. We hold on to anger. We hold onto relationships that won’t work. We hold onto things in our homes, garages and closets that clutter up our lives. We hold on to beliefs about ourselves and others. We try to hold onto our youth and some dreams that need a little tweaking. We forget that it’s ok to let go. Nature has run it’s course and it’s time for the next season.

What are some of the other ways we hold on, when it’s probably time to let go?

What would you like to let go?

Don’t Go On a #Diet…

Today’s Challenge: Don’t go on a #diet, instead, eat a little less and move a little more.

weight 121.5

A month ago, during my yearly physical, I discovered that I had gained five pounds. I knew my clothes were a little tighter, but I didn’t realize I had gained that much. Though surprised, I didn’t panic. And I didn’t make the terrible decision to go on a diet. Instead, I simply took my own advice and easily started to drop the extra few pounds. It’s been a month and I’ve lost three pounds–I still have two to go. I like the calm, easy approach to dropping weight: Liking myself as I am, not making drastic changes in my diet or starving myself, eating everything I love (but less of it), and moving a little more. I’ll keep you posted… and if you’re interested in learning more about my short easy booklet on staying, or getting, thin you can check it out here.
