The thing about dreaming: dreams can evolve.
It isn’t a dream if you expect it to come true right away.
You can’t be demanding of your dreams.
Dream big, do the work to get there, fall down on the way, get back up. Dream some more!
Happy Monday!
-Dr Lindeman
“Results speak for themselves.”
How many times have you heard that?
It is uttered a lot, because it is very true.
However, it is only part of the story.
While it is true that the after picture is powerful when compared to the before.
The book is amazing when it is finished.
The recommendations due to the results people have achieved help drive others into our Chiropractic practice.
BUT….
The “whys” and the “hows” behind those results matter more.
The drive to improve, the will to win, the process to do both, those are the writers, the providers that give voice to the results.
When you want to lose weight, the why is what feeds the results.
When you want to write a book, the why is what puts pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard).
When you want to travel the world, the why is what purchases the first plane ticket.
The purpose that leads to the results are the screenwriters. The results just recite the lines.
Happy screen-writing my friends!

Lead every interaction with these thoughts: calm (body), confident (mind) love (heart) joy (spirit)-Cesar Millan
This is a great podcast!
I like this episode where “The Dog Whisperer” discusses how important your energy is (not only with dogs but with humans too).
If we can pause and bring forth calmness, confidence, love and joy, it is amazing how those interactions will go.
I hope your day is filled with all the above!
Happy Tuesday

This excerpt is from Brene Brown’s book: Braving the Wilderness. I love the book so far.
We are all truly connected and we feel more of that connection when we lead our lives and our interactions with compassion.
Love one another, be connected.
-Dr Lindeman
This is probably one of my favorite quotes by Martin Luther King Jr.
He said a lot of wonderful, impactful things.
But this, this is such a wonderful reminder that greatness can be found through the service of others.
We can all help brighten the day, lessen the load, and decrease the burden that others are facing through service.
Smile, care, hug, talk, be compassionate and serve your fellow neighbor (we are all truly neighbors on this Earth).
You will feel greater.
And you will have a great impact on their lives.
Be great today!
-Dr Lindeman
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!
-Dr Lindeman
Vision is necessary for a brighter future.
Action is PARAMOUNT!
When you combine the two, the results are magnificent!

I love this guy! (Check out his website here)
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!

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!
