Stop should-ing all over yourself

I heard something great in church this weekend.

“We need to stop should-ing 💩 all over ourselves!”

I loved it!

If you are exercising, reading, eating well, in a relationship, etc, because you feel you “should” be….stop!

Guilt is a repressor, not a motivator.

Instead, find reasons why you WANT to do those things. If you want to do them to form a brighter future, for instance, latch on to that, and let go of the “should.”

Have a monumental Monday, friends!

Break the chains of mediocrity!

This statement is so true!

As a new year begins to gain traction, we tend to have big dreams for big changes.

The problem is we don’t STRATEGIZE (I’m making it a word for today, ok?) enough on how to achieve them.

Plan your work and work your plan.

Have BIG goals, (powered by HUGE WHYS/motivation to achieve them) but chunk up the HOW you are going to cross those finish lines.

Take time to envision the end result, but even more time to work on the processes of getting there.

In reality, that is truly where the joy lives, in the journey.

Get planning my friends!

Persistence and the law of repetition

It’s a new year!

Time to set goals, dream big, change our lives…. and hopefully these intentions last past Jan 31st.

The biggest problem with resolutions (and therefore their failure) is that we set big, daunting goals that would require big, daunting changes in order to accomplish them.

As Ovid says, persistence is the key to lasting change.

If you want to accomplish something big, you are better off breaking it down into smaller chunks.

Want to exercise an hour everyday but you haven’t done so in years? Start with 5 minutes and work your way up.

The first step is the most meaningful on any journey. And each step after the first one can be all the more meaningful if we visualize them as ANOTHER first step.

Repetition and persistence are the keys to true growth.

Happy first-steps!

Thank you for sharing these, Ashley! They are so true and the fit so well together!

If you want to truly feel ALIVE, you must be healthy.

The best way to start living a healthier life? START BY STARTING.

Eating well, thinking well, moving well, exercise, diet, mentality, all of these can seem daunting…

The best thing to do is take a small step toward a healthier, more meaningFULL life is to start.

Happy steps my friends!
